On the Problem of Leading Activity in Adolescence

948

Abstract

The author hypothesizes that the activity of designing is leading in adolescence. Project activity is understood as a connection between design and implementation, in which the actor, modeling reality and experimenting with it, discovers the connection of the situation of action with his own experiences and states. The center of this connection is the sphere of human relations.
