Instructions
The human brain develops in a specific sequence. The limbic system, or the seat of emotions and the experience of rewards, is said to be completely developed in early adolescence. However, the pre-frontal cortex, also called the judgment region, doesn’t finish developing until a person is an adult.
We could reasonably suggest that during the adolescent stage, it may be biologically difficult for a person to wrangle their emotions, impulses, and behaviors.
As a medical educator, how would you teach a group of parents about why their adolescent boys and girls are “acting out”?
In approximately 3 pages, create a “fact sheet” in MS Word that includes a chart, images, banners, tables, etc., that explains why adolescent children may be less logical and more emotional in their decision-making. As part of your fact sheet, include ideas on how parents can best support their teenager during this time.
Be sure that you use peer-reviewed research to support your 3-page handout.
Requirements
Length: 2.5-3 pages (not including title page or references page)
Includes engaging presentation elements (e.g., images, banners, tables)
Attributes proper credit to outside sources (due to the creative nature of this assignment, attribution may look different than it does in a standard essay; that is okay so long as you credit your source in such a way that your audience can easily track down the sources you reference)
