Explain how an adolescent constructs an identity, and how it affects how he or she learns
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Adolescents construct identity largely through social relationships. Gender-based practices and stereotypes, the groups with whom they choose to associate, and labels that have been applied to them all affect their identity. Often that identity is not associated with success at school, and teachers must find a way to overcome this.
