Part 1: Interview

Contact an administrator or instructional coach and  a practicing teacher for secondary grades 6-12 and arrange separate  interviews. Speak with your instructor if there is the need to  interview alternate professionals, if necessary. 

Use the following points of discussion to guide your interview:

1. Discuss characteristics of adolescence.
2. What    characteristics seem to change the most and why?
3. What    characteristics seem to never change?
4. How does physical    development influence the characteristics of adolescence?
5. How does cognitive development influence the characteristics of  adolescence?
6. How do social and emotional relationships    influence the adolescents?
7. What technologies are most    effective to facilitate learning in adolescents?

Part 2: Reflection

In 250-500 words, summarize and reflect on your interviews. How does  each individual’s approach to development in adolescence promote  growth for students with physical, cognitive, or socioemotional needs?  What forms of technology are most effective to facilitate development  and learning in adolescents? Explain how you will use your findings in  your future professional practice.
