IV. Some contributions of (socio)-contructivism to teaching
V. Some characteristics of adolescents and their possible impact on learning |

2) Discovering and understanding some characteristics of adolescents and young adults.
3) Analysing teaching practices in light of theoretical perspectives and core concepts of these theories.
4) Analysing the impact of certain characteristics of adolescents and young adults on their commitment to school and their learning.
