Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

"The Thinking Child" describes in depth the most up-to-date research that lies behind brain-based learning theory and gives practical advice to help practitioners from any type of setting to put the theory into practice. It addresses many issues of interest to practitioners, such as how to maximize learning through play, how to define "intelligence", the current thinking about why some children develop disorders such as ADHD, and how to help children develop emotional intelligence.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Nicola Call started her teaching career in Inner London, rising rapidly to become Deputy Head of three primary schools. When she met Alistair Smith, with whom she co-wrote The alps approach, Nicola was beginning to put theory into practice at her school on the outskirts of London's Heathrow airport. The most memorable result of this work was when 100 per cent of her Year 6 students attained Level 5 in their science SATs, but of equal importance was the incredible academic confidence of the children who experienced these methods. Nicola now lives in California where she combines writing with research into Accelerated Learning work in schools.
