  1. Create a fictitious adolescent, between the ages of 12 to 19 and discuss whether or not the fictitious adolescent has had a growth spurt.
  2. Discuss the fictitious adolescent's cognitive development in terms of Jean Piaget’s fourth stage of cognitive development, which is the formal operational stage and discuss the fictitious adolescent's moral reasoning, in terms of Lawrence Kohlberg’s theory of moral reasoning, which includes the preconventional level, the conventional level, and the post conventional level.
  3. Create a statement about the fictitious adolescent's health, by describing either drug use, a health problem, or an eating disorder, which are anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, in the fictitious adolescent, or, a lack of drug use, a lack of a health problem, or a lack of an eating disorder, which are anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, in the fictitious adolescent.

Sample 

  1. My friend from childhood's son was 17 years old, he was a tall and thin adolescent, who had his adolescent growth spurt, which was readily identifiable, when my friend met me at the car wash last week, after having re-connected with her on an Internet Web site after so many years.
  2. My friend's son was having a running conversation with his mother about whether or not he could borrow her car, if he completed all of his homework, chores, and volunteer work by the end of the day, so he could go to the school event that evening, showing hypothetical reasoning, one of Piaget's signs of formal operations, his last stage in his theory of cognitive development. 
  3. The adolescent showed signs of post conventional morality, as he started a conversation with another adolescent sitting next to him, discussing abstract moral reasons for engaging in behavior that others might frown upon.
