REVIEWS: "Dr. Guilford's work, the SI model, will have its greatest impact on tomorrow's children. For how else can humans evolve except through their minds? The application (SOI) of the total SI model to structuring curriculum gives educators a predictable scope and sequence for developing children's intelligence. The end result is the blending of the cognitive and the affective functioning as children become successful in handling their worlds."--Mary E. Meeker, President, SOI Institute, El Segundo, California. "With the advent of PL 94-142 and its subsequential requirement for 'child find' and 'individualized education plans' (IEP), it is crucial that all educators identify and utilize multiple diagnostic instruments and strategies to program for the educational development of exceptional children. J. P. Guilford's Structure of Intellect (SOI) lends itself both as a diagnostic tool for assessing the individual level of performance and as a curriculum model for development of educational plans, either bolstering a weakness or using a strength, as a 'motivational device.' Utilizing the SOI, educators can push far beyond the narrow confines of IQ to full development of our most precious resource--our youth."--Dorothy Sisk, Director, Office of Gifted and Talented, Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. "J. P. Guilford, the man whose research and conceptualizations of human intelligence has truly taken us 'way beyond the IQ,' has now given us a brilliantly practical guide for translating his monumental work into action. In this book he tells us in practical, easy-to-understand ways how to improve intelligence and creativity and 'go way beyond where we are' in our mental functioning. An interesting and novel feature of this latest work by Guilford is his translation of Structure of Intellect concepts into career education terms."--E. Paul Torrance, Alumni Foundation Distinguished Professor of Educational Psychology, The University of Georgia. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.…

Shopbeschreibung

For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location. We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born. In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business. For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other. But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here. We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.…
