A key to the mind
why this name?
The mind is what drives our lives.
Nothing is more our of our mind and nothing is more mysterious in its processes.
How many skill mastered without even realizing?
How many do we master if we were able to better utilize our resources?
many memories are hidden in the depths of our brains are ready to emerge in the most unexpected or seemingly lost forever?
There is no moment in life when the thought stops,
not exist when you take off.
Yet its capabilities are far beyond what we normally believe.
A key to the mind arises from
respect for this great asset that we have, comes from
desire not to waste it, comes mainly with
will help those in need, who, for various reasons, can not, by itself, to use their resources properly.
Feuerstein takes up the words that we wrote as a wish for the activities of the association:
a key that allows you to learn, dedicating all his life to open the doors of knowledge and (if) he uses his mind with a view to open it just with a key, since pronto ad imparare e ad arricchire costantemente se stesso.
Ma che cosa è il metodo Feuerstein?
Una risposta non certo esauriente ma, quanto meno, indicatrice delle linee generali che lo delineano potrebbe essere:
"Un metodo educativo per il potenziamento delle capacità mentali basato sul principio che l’intelligenza non è un fattore predeterminato e stabile ma un elemento passibile di evoluzione. Feuerstein esplicita le condizioni che permettono il potenziamento delle capacità mentali providing information about the environment in which to operate, the approach to education by establishing and providing practical, useful to overcome any possible cognitive impairment. "
This explanation, however, does not render full account of its essence: the Feuerstein method is something more: it is a philosophy of life is an incentive to work and act according to criteria of relevance, practicality, dynamism and optimism. Everyone is editable on the cognitive level as the human body is an open system, characterized by great plasticity.
Feuerstein talking about intelligence, says: "It 's time to stop measuring what is measurable, it is time to enhance what is upgradeable.
E 'can produce structural changes, regardless of age, the kind of problem, from the limitations that characterize endogenous and exogenous
why we are venturing in this initiative because we believe that the use of tools designed by Feuerstein, albeit extremely effective, absolutely do not cover its own educational, but ... The instruments themselves, if not entered in a modifying the environment to use mediation have no meaning.
Our motion is based on this principle:
enrich the professionalism of which we carry through the proposals Feuerstein, Feuerstein use proposals within the our training.
In many situations where someone met difficulties often said with conviction, no commitment ... ... not interested in anything ... not motivated ...
Thus can teach movement, music, sports, can be taught to read and write, do calculations, to share experiences with others, you can do an analysis of its past and plan for the future, we can address the discomfort, strengthen the personality, everything will build on the fundamental premise Feuerstein: full confidence in the human cognitive modifiability. A deep belief in recent years has been strongly supported by the research of neurophysiology
Intelligence is something you can teach.
This is done by driving to observe and to ask questions, inspiring them to compare objects and events, to find connections between seemingly unrelated facts together, leading to use vocabulary correctly and appropriately, encouraging to abstract from the situation that existed at the time to imagine past or future events, or only some possible real or imaginary.
This is done by teaching you to trust in themselves, to assess objectively their successes, to learn from mistakes to realize that collaboration brings mutual enrichment that sharing helps to overcome the difficulties.
This is done through the preparation of an active lifestyle modifier, thanks to the mediation, according to Feuerstein, everyone should use if they want to be effective in their intervention.
