Description
Develop your students' abilities to think and learn more effectively. This practical guide provides teachers with strategies to help at-risk students develop cognitive skills and become more effective thinkers and learners. By applying Reuven Feuerstein's theory, educators can enhance intelligence and change the way students think with the right kind of intervention. The book offers a range of easy-to-implement suggestions for transforming challenging students into more effective learners. It also provides an expanded discussion of mediated learning, explanations and applications of the Cognitive Map and Structured Cognitive Modifiability, and reflective activities for the educator.
