Feuerstein, R., Falik, L. H., and Feuerstein, R. S. , Kristina Bohacs. Foreword by Yvette Jackson.

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 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 results achieved with real children. The book describes the concept of mediated soliloquy (MSL), or self-talk, with individuals or classrooms where and how it can be applied, and illustrates the use of MSL to improve both language and interpersonal function with children exhibiting delays, spectrum behavior, and social difficulties.

Feuerstein, R., Falik, L. H., and Feuerstein, R. S

Originally developed to help students overcome learning obstacles created by emotional trauma or neurobiological learning disabilities, Reuven Feuerstein's work is now used in major cities around the world to support impoved 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 modifiability and mediated learning. With dramatic case studies throughout, 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 oberservation and data-gathering stage; development or processing stage; and output stage including analysis, synthesis, and communication.

Biblical and Talmudic Antecedents of Mediated Learning

Feuerstein, S

An analysis of the concepts of mediated learning experience as they are rooted in Judaic thinking. Sources from the Torah (Bible), Talmud (elaborated commentaries on biblical themes) and other related writings of Jewish and secular scholars are used to define and deepen the meaning of mediated learning experience. The reader will gain insight into processes of questioning, ways of learning to decipher meaning, and relate this study to cultural transmission and the issues of contemporary life.

Feuerstein, R., Falik, L. H., and Feuerstein, R. S.

In this volume Professor Reuven Feuerstein provides a first-person narrative of the development of the concept of mediated learning experience (MLE), and links it to both its philosophical and cultural roots and to issues of putting it into practice. He offers personal observations of experiences with the implementation of MLE, recalling unique case examples that helped him to further define the concept and teach it to others. He also offers new perspectives on its meaning for learning process and cultural transmissions. There are supplimental chapters from Rabbi Rafi Feuerstein, on the effects of modern media access on the development of thinking, and Dr. Shmuel Feuerstein on the use of questioning in MLE.

Mediated Learning Experience Guidelines for parents

Guidelines for Parents was written for parents of children with special needs. The objective was to present Feuerstein approach which consists essentially of a firm belief in the readiness of the child to modify himself and to increase his level of functioning, and in the possibility of parents to contribute meaningfully to this process of modification.

Analytic Perception enhances students' ability to differentiate ( divide a whole into its part). and integrate ( join parts into a whole). Adaptation to the world depends upon the flexibility to alternate between these two perceptual processes. A result of their experiences with the task in this instrumet, students begin to differentiate between inner and outer sources of reference. They are then able to form and discriminately use internal referents to process information and too structure and restructure their varied life experiences.

Comparison to the model.
Establishment of relationship between parts and between the parts of the model.
Categoriztion of parts according to their shapes and colors.
Visual transport of parts to the model.

Categorization is based on successful comparison, differentiation, and discrimination. This instrument helps students develop the flexibility and divergent thinking necessary for categorization and re-categorization of the same objects into different stes as the principles and parameters of categorization change with new needs and objectives. In categorizing, students' moves from establishing relationships among cocrete items to projecting relationships among concepts.

Comparison of certain similarities and differences.
Selection of relevant information.
Summative behavior.
Projection of relationships.
Determination of cognitive categories.

Comparisons increase the students' ability to differentiate between parameters of comparison and develops critical thinking involved in comparative behavior. The instrument provides concepts, labels, and operations with which to decribe similarities and differences. From comparisons students learn to organize and integrate seperate and distinct bits of information into coordinated and meaningful systems. The instrument helps build students' feeling of competence and independence by enriching thhe repertoire of attributes by which they compare objects and events.

Ability to keep in mind a great number of parameters during the process.
Making a plan that will take into account the complexity of the tasks.
Use of hypothetical thinking and hypotheses testing of evaluate the alternative response.
