This book is based on the theories of cognitive psychologist Dr Reuven Feuerstein, who pioneered the theory on Mediated Learning Experience (MLE) in the late 1940s through his work with children who were orphaned or separated from their parents as a result of the Holocaust. The theory of MLE is based on the belief that intelligence is modifiable and not fixed, and intervention programs can be designed to enhance the cognitive skills necessary for independent thinking. Written by renowned cognitive education, psychology and child development professors, professionals and practitioners with years of experience in research and development of MLE, this book presents a fresh view of MLE theory for anyone working with children
