Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking about the Teaching of Thinking provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to Feuerstein’s theory of Mediated Learning Experience and its related tools and programmes. It details up-to-date international and New Zealand research on the Feuerstein approach which reflects the current issues in the teaching of thinking. The book begins by defining what is meant by the teaching of thinking and provides an easy to understand explanation of the Feuerstein method and its value for children with learning challenges. It champions a ‘whole school’ approach to the teaching of thinking and details the practical tools and programmes developed by Feuerstein – such as Instrumental Enrichment and the Learning Propensity Assessment Device – to aid in its implementation. It also recognises the key importance of cultural factors in the teaching of thinking, bringing together the author’s considerable research experience using the Feuerstein method in the multicultural New Zealand context with her extensive knowledge of international Feuerstein research. This book provides a user-friendly and unique coverage of the Feuerstein method for researchers and postgraduate students researching and working in educational psychology. It will also be of great value for teachers and parents looking to understand and decide on implementation of the Feuerstein approach in their schools.

Book Can We Teach Intelligence

Download or read book Can We Teach Intelligence written by Nigel Blagg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling book provides one of the most comprehensive and detailed evaluations of a very popular cognitive skills course -- Reuven Feuerstein's Instrumental Enrichment Programme. Feuerstein claims that his program, a model for diagnosing and remedying cognitive deficiencies in poor attainers, can equip pupils with the basic prerequisites of thinking, thereby enabling them to become more effective learners. Combining innovative and traditional experimental techniques, this text analyzes both teacher and pupil outcomes on a wide range of issues including abilities, accomplishments, and behavioral characteristics. The implications of the study are set against theoretical and practical issues involved in other popular intellectual skills training programs. "Real world" concerns that have been largely ignored by research literature are addressed, as are their effects on the teaching of thinking skills.

Book Changing Destinies

Download or read book Changing Destinies written by Louis H. Falik and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the biography of a remarkable man who changed the lives of those who were lost and who stood at the nexus of world events. A man who brought hope to those for whom no hope was held, transformed our definitions of intelligence and learning, and joined the pantheon of great cognitive psychologists, ranking with Piaget and Vygotsky. This is told largely through his own words and of those who knew him. One does not need to be well versed in psychology or education to appreciate the story of his life but interested in how one’s family, religious beliefs, and optimistic responding to climactic events shape the character of a unique personality. The story evolves over his lifetime and is told as a narrative of extraordinary times and accomplishments.

  • Publisher : Teachers College Press
  • Release : 2015-04-25
  • ISBN : 0807772208
  • Pages : 334 pages

Download or read book Beyond Smarter written by Reuven Feuerstein and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2015-04-25 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally developed to help students overcome learning obstacles created by emotional trauma or neurobiological learning disabilities, Reuven Feuersteins work is now used in major cities around the world to support improved thinking and learning by all students. This book is the most up-to-date summary of his thinking and includes accessible descriptions of his tools and methods for cognitive modifiablilty and mediated learning. With dramatic case studies throughout the text, Feuerstein and his co-authors define intelligence as a dynamic force that drives the human organism to change the structure of thinking in order to answer the needs it encounters. They describe in detail the specific skills of the three stages of thinking: input or observation and data-gathering stage; development or processing stage; and output stage, including analysis, synthesis, and communication. They show how student thinking can stall in multiple ways at any of these stages and how intentional mediation can help students restructure their thinking and improve their ability to learn. Similarly to cognitive mediated learning, the authors address mediation of social and emotional skills that impact learning.

Book The Cognitive Enrichment Advantage Family School Partnership Handbook

Download or read book The Cognitive Enrichment Advantage Family School Partnership Handbook written by Katherine H. Greenberg and published by KCD Harris & Associates Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cognitive Enrichment Advantage Family-School Partnership Handbook shows how families can work in partnership with teachers to help their children learn how to learn, improve academic achievement, and become effective, independent learners. The Handbook helps family members understand what their children need to know about learning to be successful in school. When parents understand how the worldview of the school may be different from the worldview about learning they share at home, they can help their children uncover the hidden rules of school and still appreciate the worldview of their families. The Handbook includes information, stories, tips, and checklists parents can use to provide mediated learning as they help their children build learning strategies based on 12 Building Blocks of Thinking (cognitive processes that lead to flexibility in thinking) and 8 Tools of Learning (processes involving feelings and motivation important in any learning experience). While designed to be used by family members in partnership with teachers using the CEA classroom approach, the Handbook can also be used by family members without teacher participation. CEA Teachers find the Family-School Partnership Handbook helpful in understanding their role in the classroom.

Book A Think aloud and Talk aloud Approach to Building Language

Download or read book A Think aloud and Talk aloud Approach to Building Language written by Reuven Feuerstein and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While self-talk like "Now we are buckling you in the car seat so we can go to the store" is common parental practice, this book shows how teachers, parents, and therapists can take this to higher levels to advance language cognitive development and learning potential. Based on neuroscience and their own innovative work, the authors provide the rationale and a step-by-step process for using intentional self-talk and think-aloud methods to improve both language and cognitive development in normal and language-delayed children, as well as in older individuals with disabilities. Stories are sprinkled throughout the text to demonstrate mediated self-talk in action and the remarkable results achieved with real children. With clear guidelines for delivery, content, and timing, the crucial core of the process is to narrate thinking, action, and emotion in the presence of children without requiring their response. Book Features: Addresses the growing numbers of children entering school with "language poverty," describes the concept of mediated soliloquy (MSL), or self-talk, with individuals or classrooms—who should use it and when, where and how it can be applied, and expected outcome, and illustrates the use of MSL for specific language disorders and to improve both language and interpersonal function with children exhibiting delays, disabilities, spectrum behavior, and social/emotional difficulties.
