Bаsed оn whаt we leаrned in Chapters 15 and 16 abоut оlder adulthood, create two fictional older adult characters and include their ages. One character should demonstrate integrity, and the other should demonstrate despair. Describe how each person feels about their life and explain what experiences may have led them to feel that way. Example: Jake is a 16-year-old high school junior who has developed a strong sense of who he is. He has explored different interests, such as playing basketball, volunteering, and taking science classes. Through these experiences, he discovered he enjoys helping others and wants to become a physical therapist. Jake feels confident in his values and is comfortable expressing his opinions. He has a stable group of friends and supportive parents who encourage independence. Jake demonstrates identity achievement because he has explored options and developed a clear sense of self and future goals. In contrast, Maya is a 15-year-old sophomore who is still trying to figure out who she is. She often changes her interests and friend groups and feels pressure to fit in. She struggles to make decisions and relies heavily on others’ opinions. At home, her parents make most of her choices, which limits her ability to explore her identity. Maya often feels unsure about her future and lacks clear goals. She demonstrates identity confusion (role confusion) because she does not yet have a stable sense of self. 2 points (Full credit): Describes two older adult characters with clear ages Accurately shows integrity in one and despair in the other Includes specific examples of life reflections, feelings, and experiences from the textbook/powerpoint slides Clearly explains why each character demonstrates integrity or despair 1 point (Partial credit): Includes two older adults but is too general or lacks specific examples, and/or Shows limited or unclear understanding of integrity vs despair, and/or Does not clearly explain why each character fits the stage
