Module 5
 5 Challenges of Adolescence
In this lesson, we will be focusing on the tasks and challenges that you
experienced during your adolescence stage. Adolescence is the period
of development that begins at puberty and ends at emerging adulthood. During
puberty stage, there are changes that occur in the body of a child. It is a natural
process that everyone goes through. Remember when you started to notice the
rapid changes in your body? Mostly resulted to your being self-conscious and being
overly emotional. Sometimes, you would want to be accepted and be “in”, but at
times, you would want to be just left alone. These adjustments are part of
developmental changes during adolescence stage -- the time when a child
transitions in terms of physiology and cognition to fulfil a new role as an emerging
adult.

We will walk along with you to discover yourself as you take the journey to
the stage of becoming a responsible individual. Knowledge and understanding to
oneself is the key to overcome the challenges in this period of your life. With
guidance, assurance, and a better understanding of the process, you will have an
easier time transitioning yourself in this extraordinary developmental stage.

What’s In

In Module 4, you learned that life is full of challenges. Nonetheless, what

matters is how you manage and overcome the challenges that you encounter in
your life. This may be difficult, but learning to accept these difficulties may lead
you in the right directions. Your thoughts, feelings, and behavior toward a
situation are reflection of yourself as a person. Moreover, dealing with
circumstances makes you become a better individual.

Read and express your thoughts, feelings, and ideas on the

following situations. Write your answers in your notebook.

Situation No. 1
John is an active member of school organizations. He has a lot of talents to
share and ideas to contribute to their club. Aside from that, he is known for his looks,
neatness, and tidiness. However, these seemingly likeable characteristics became the
reasons that many get envious and try to create rumors and gossips about him. This
hurt him so much that he almost wanted to drop from schooling

Give your reaction:

Situation No. 2

Erica is a Grade 11 student. Like any other girls she is sociable and have a lot of
friends in school. She is just an average student, but having a crush on her top one
3
classmate urged her to spend late nights studying to keep up with him. However, all her
efforts still fell short and she did not make it to the cut CO_Q1_Personal Development
of students with honors. SHS
Because of this, she developed an eating disorder that causedModule
her to5lose huge weight.
She also started to have breakouts. With these, the then friendly Erica became aloof
and self-conscious.
Processing Questions:
1. What kind of adolescent did the two students portray in the two situations?

2. What challenges did John and Erica experience?

3. What challenges do Filipino adolescents face most?

Notes to the Teacher

1. Process every activity. You can use question and answer method
just to ensure that the learners understand it.
2. In the discussion, give additional information about the topic.
3. Multidisciplinary approach is encouraged. Search for additional
resources for the topic.
4. Use the story of Alice in Wonderland as springboard to discuss the
new lesson.

What’s New

“Who are you?' said the Caterpillar. This was not an encouraging opening
for a conversation.  Alice replied, rather shyly, `I--I hardly know, sir, just at
present-- at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I
must have been changed several times since then.' What do you mean by that?'
said the Caterpillar sternly. `Explain yourself!'

`I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, sir' said Alice, CO_Q1_Personal Development SHS
`because I'm not myself, you see.' Module 5
`I don't see,' said the Caterpillar.
 Adolescence is defined as the period between the normal onset of puberty
and the beginning of adulthood. In the Oxford English Dictionary, the origin of the
word adolescence was from late Middle English (as a noun) and was derived via
French from Latin adolescent, which means ‘coming to maturity’. Other derivation
of the word the same origin is adolescere, from ad- ‘to’ + alescere ‘grow, grow up’,
from alere ‘nourish’.

The transition period between childhood and early adulthood is quite

difficult. This is the most crucial stage because this is the time when teens start
defining themselves. Remember, however, that each adolescent’s experiences,
individual changes, and growth vary.

Activity 1:

The following illustrations show a boy and a girl adolescent. Let one
represent you and recall the challenges you have experienced during your
adolescence stage. Write your answers inside the box below.

Example: rapid changes of physical appearance

Processing Questions:

1. What were the most difficult challenges you have encountered?

2. How were you able to overcome these challenges?

CO_Q1_Personal Development SHS

 3. How did these challenges help you to be a better person? How do you think
this would prepare you to your adulthood?

What is It

Developmental Challenges of Adolescence

Adolescence is the transition period between childhood and early
adulthood– the most rapid stage of human development. According to World Health
Organization (WHO), it is a period of life with specific health and development
needs and rights. It is also a time to develop knowledge and skills, learn to manage
emotions and relationship, and acquire attributes and abilities that will be
important for enjoying the adolescent years and assuming adult roles.

Cambridge Dictionary defines developmental as relating to the process of

growing or changing into a more advance, larger and stronger form, while
challenges is defined as something
that needs great mental or physical effort in order to be
done successfully and therefore tests a person's ability. The challenges the
adolescents are facing occur during the development of his/her biological,
cognitive, and physiological, spiritual and moral aspects.

Developmental Tasks of Adolescence

In the eight stages of Psychosocial Developmental Theory of Erik Erikson,
Identity vs. Role Confusion (this stage is the age between 12 to 18 years old)
explains that adolescents would try to explore and figure out their own identity and
try to fit in with social interactions at the same time. According to Erikson, an
adolescent’s main task is developing a sense of self. Adolescents struggle with
questions “Who am I?” and “What do I want to do with my life?” Most of the
adolescents try to explore various roles and ideas and look for a place where they
can fit, set goals, and attempt to discover themselves.

As an adolescent who is entering the stage of adulthood, you are responsible

for your own being. Accepting yourself and ensuring your body’s physical health
help you build stronger personality and sense of identity. Likewise, building a
strong relationship with your family and showing affection and respect to others
can improve interactions with them. Establishing social responsibility, moreover,
develops personal and moral values to guide you on how to react to social issues.

Entering adulthood is undeniably a big challenge. At this stage of your life,

your family, your school, and your community contribute to prepare you
in this life-changing task. You should, in turn, need to be emotionally prepared
since you would need to choose people whom you think would help you fulfill these
tasks in order for you to reach you goals in life

CO_Q1_Personal Development SHS
Module 5
 Some years ago, Professor Robert J. Havighurst of the University of Chicago
proposed that stages in human development can best be thought of in terms of the
developmental tasks that are part of the normal transition. In his developmental
tasks theory, he stressed out that when people successfully accomplish the
developmental tasks at a stage, they feel pride and satisfaction. He defines
developmental task as a task that arises at or about a certain period in life,
unsuccessful achievement of which leads to inability to perform tasks associated
with the next period or stage in life.

Havighurst identified eleven Developmental Tasks of Normal Adolescence

associated with the adolescent transition. However, he believes that adolescence do
not progress through these multiple developmental tasks separately because
adolescence tasks may vary with early, middle, and late periods of the transition.
