profilejlsmnukey

  

As stated in the required resources for this week, the Search Institute has identified 40 Developmental Assets or “building blocks” of healthy development for young people. These have been broken down in to eight broad categories, and then identified as external or internal values.
 

First, using the US Census Bureau’s American Fact Finder (Links to an external site.) (http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/index.xhtml), Pew Research Center (Links to an external site.) (http://pewresearch.org/), and the National Center for Education Statistics (Links to an external site.) (http://nces.ed.gov/) websites, write a short descriptive narrative that identifies the general demographic characteristics of your community based on the latest census. Include items such as average income, household size, and other interesting facts that help paint an accurate picture of your community and schools in relation to the 40 Developmental Assets.
 

Next, create a table that identifies the eight categories of human development, summarizes the importance of the asset to the development of all youth, and identify at least one existing organization or support model in your community where students can experience this asset. Post your narrative and table in your initial post.
 

*Note: We will revisit and build on this table in Week Four. Please see attachment of the full lesson work
