Task Analysis

This section outlines the task as identified in both lesson plans. The first task will allow
students to identify and categorise changes that occur the adolescent stage as it relates to
both males and females. These changes will be depicted on a chart and displayed. The second
task will allow students to create a skit highlighting a few major challenges that adolescents
face and the class will discuss a possible coping strategy to deal with the challenges
highlighted in the skit. Task analysis is significant as it analysing the sequential micro steps
needed to complete an objective and breaking the objective down into those tiny steps It is
important to record how well students did the steps of a task and not simply to record that
they completed the steps.
