HYERLE, LARRY ALPER and published by Design for Thinking. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renown educator and expert in the practical applications of cognitive-neuroscience offers this opening her concise Forward to this book about the wide ranging uses of Thinking Maps®: "Neuroscientists tell us that the brain organizes information in networks and maps... the Thinking Maps program takes full advantage of the natural proclivity of the brain to think visually." Student Successes with Thinking Maps presents a language of eight visual tools and framing tools based on fundamental cognitive processes of the human brain and mind that boost all learners' metacognitive and critical thinking skills. The first chapter by Thinking Maps creator David Hyerle, Ed.D. is a comprehensive introduction to the theory, history, research and results from the systematic implementation of Thinking Maps over time. This book is rich in detail and inspiration from teachers, principals, and administrators from around the world and across diverse schools and systems. The wide-ranging stories and supporting data across the 19 chapters weave together to create a unified theme of Thinking Maps as a transformational language for learning. From the authors of these chapters, you will learn about school-wide changes in teachers’ effectiveness and student performance in an inner-city elementary school in Long Beach, California, where 85% of the students entering classrooms speak Spanish as their first language; students with special needs in a middle school in North Carolina making performance leaps of over three years’ growth in mathematics; girls from a single-sex, independent, K–12 school in New Zealand rising over four years to the top of that nation’s educational ladder; and entering junior college students in Mississippi significantly shifting reading comprehension scores, while those in the nursing program dramatically outperform their peers of previous years. You will also hear about the Pass Christian School District, landfall for Hurricane Katrina, rising over the years to become the top-performing school system in Louisiana. The authors of the chapters before you bring forth insights grounded in practical examples and experiences from their work to transform teaching and learning.

Download or read book Mind Mapping and Artificial Intelligence written by Jose Maria Guerrero and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-10-22 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the near future, we will see an increase in the development and use of all sorts of AI applications. Some of the more promising areas will be Finance, Healthcare, IoT, Manufacturing, Journalism, and Cybersecurity. Many of these applications generate a great amount of complex information. Natural Language Understanding is one of the most clear examples. Traditional ways of visualizing complex information, namely linear text, web pages and hyperlink-based applications, have serious productivity problems. Users need a lot of time to visualize the information and have problems seeing the whole picture of the results. Mind mapping is probably the only way of reducing the problems inherent in these traditional ways of visualizing complex information. Most people have no clear idea about the advantages of mind mapping or the problems created by the traditional ways of visualizing complex information. The goal of Mind Mapping and Artificial Intelligence is to provide readers with an introduction to mind mapping and artificial intelligence, to the problems of using traditional ways of visualizing complex information and as an introduction to mind mapping automation and its integration into Artificial Intelligence applications such as NLU and others. As more applications of Artificial Intelligence are developed in the near future, the need for the improvement of the visualization of the information generated will increase exponentially. Information overload will soon also happen in AI applications. This will diminish the advantages of using AI. Author José Maria Guerrero is a long-time expert in mind mapping and visualization techniques. In this book he also introduces readers to MindManager mind mapping software, which can considerably reduce the problems associated with the interpretation of complex information generated by Artificial Intelligence software. - Provides coverage of the fundamentals of mind mapping and visualization applied to Artificial Intelligence applications - Includes coverage of the scientific bases for mind mapping for the visualization of complex information - Introduces MindManager software for mind mapping - Introduces the author's MindManager toolkit for the readers to use in development of new mind mapping applications - Includes case studies and real-world applications of MindManager for AI applications, including examples using IBM Watson NLU

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nation's progress is determined by the quality of education imparted to its citizens. Education aims at the development of the power of adaptation to the ever changing social environment. It is the most powerful instrument whose effective use requires the strength of will, dedicated work and sacrifice. Since this instrument is in the hands of teachers, they must possess the above mentioned qualities for its effective use. Thus education is responsible for the development of desirable habits, skills and attitudes which make an individual a good citizen. The need of the society is always fulfilled through the education system prevailing in that society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WhatÊandÊhowÊyoung children are thinking are typically expressed and shared at home and school through verbal and written modes of communication. As a visual language framework conceived and developed by David Hyerle, Thinking Maps® offers an additional way for learners to represent their ideas by visually mapping their fundamental patterns of thinking. The authors offer a wide range of materials, strategies, and evidence-based practices for implementing Thinking Maps (and the metacognitive framing strategy that each map promotes) in ways that are developmentally appropriate, culturally responsive, and more inclusive with the full range of pre-K–second-grade children. Since 1990, Thinking Maps have been implemented by teachers in over 15,000 schools across the United States and around the world, including countrywide implementation in Malaysia. This guide provides a whole-child approach with practical ideas and best applications for working with emergent readers and writers across developmental domains, curricula, and executive function. Book Features: Promotes systematic support of every students’ cognitive development in whole schools (pre-K–2).Demonstrates how to use visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic activities and materials to increase student engagement.Recommends Universally Designed Learning strategies to ensure full access and inclusion with diverse learners and children with disabilities.Includes graphically designed examples of Thinking Maps across content areas.Provides examples of student work, lesson planning ideas, and curriculum design based on cognitive education.Links language and thinking in everyday classroom learning for individual and cooperative learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses Problem-based Learning (PBL) in elementary schools and reveals how this can promote elementary students’ development in critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration, and citizenship, also known as the 5 Cs. Through teachers’ interviews, the book explores which PBL strategies promote skills and knowledge gains when students collaboratively investigate authentic open-ended problems. It also uncovers peer-to-peer relational learning and other strategies used in PBL classrooms, and it examines their importance to public education. The book paints a lively picture of student-centered learning, drawing upon frameworks, best practices, experiences, processes, strategies, and research results. Firsthand accounts of best practices in PBL instruction connect this pedagogy to theory, research, practice, and policy. It explores teacher instruction in the early years of schooling that purposefully fosters student-centered learning, real-world relevance, and collaboration in accordance with capacities expected of successful 21st century graduates. This book supports the implementation of PBL in elementary schools and promotes increased student engagement and achievement, as well as college and career readiness. This book is of interest to practitioners seeking information about PBL pedagogies for elementary grades, such as teachers, teacher mentors and trainers, (school) leaders, and policymakers, as well as anyone interested in pedagogic strategies that advance critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration, and citizenship capacities.

This book was released on 2012-10-20 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of globalization and urbanization, various social, economic, and environmental challenges surround advances in modern biological sciences. Considering how biological knowledge and practice are intrinsically related to building a sustainable relationship between nature and human society, the roles of biology education need to be rethought to respond to issues and changes to life in this biocentury. This book is a compilation of selected papers from the Twenty Third Biennial Conference of the Asian Association for Biology Education 2010. The title, Biology Education for Social and Sustainable Development, demonstrates how rethinking and reconstruction of biology education in the Asia-Pacific region are increasingly grounded in deep understandings of what counts as valuable local knowledge, practices, culture, and ideologies for national and global issues, and education for sustainable development. The 42 papers by eminent science educators from Australia, China, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, and the U.S., represent a diversity of views, understandings, and practices in biology education for sustainable development from school to university in diverse education systems and social-cultural settings in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. The book is an invaluable resource and essential reference for researchers and educators on Asian perspectives and practices on biology education for social and sustainable development.

Download or read book Visual Data and Their Use in Science Education written by Jon Pedersen and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual Data in Science Education builds upon previous work done by the editors to bring some definition to the meaning of visual data as it relates to education, and highlighted the breadth of types and uses of visual data across the major academic disciplines. In this book, the editors have brought this focus specifically to science education through the contributions of colleagues in the field who actively research about and engage in teaching with visual data. The book begins by examining how the brain functions with respect to processing visual data, then explores models of conceptual frameworks, which then leads into how related ideas are actuated in education settings ranging from elementary science classrooms to college environments. As a whole, this book fosters a more coherent image of the multifaceted process of science teaching and learning that is informed by current understandings of science knowledge construction, the scientific enterprise, and the millennium student as they relate to visual data.
