This book is about improving intelligence and learning in students from Class V to Post-graduation. It uses constructivism as the idea to improve learning and intelligence. Constructivism has existed on earth since the beginning of civilization. The Bhagavad Gita is based on questions and answers. Lord Krishna did not spoon-feed Arjuna with solutions. He could have stopped the war if he wanted, but he inspired Arjuna to think and then choose what he considered was right. Constructivism is about constructing new and better knowledge at every step of learning from what is available in textbooks. We cannot solve today's problems with yesterday's ideas and we cannot survive until we learn to use our minds creatively to create intelligent solutions to solve the problems of life. This should be the sole concern of education. India can become a superpower within a few years if it does. Twenty-five percent of India's population is in the classroom. This population is young and vibrant. It can be upgraded endlessly if education inspires students to construct new knowledge as per their objectives. Education did not use constructivism because it did not till now have a technique to use it, though our national documents wanted it to be used in the classroom. The technique is now available. It has already benefitted six million students. It improves learning, results, admissions and attendance. It also reduces learning and teaching time. I request teachers and parents to spread this divine technique. It will prove to be the revolution that this nation and the world so badly needs and deserves.

The book titled Dr. R. D. Mohota's Constructivist Education is based o a revolutionary teaching technique invented by him. The technique has been demonstrated on six million students. It doubles marks and reduces the learning time in half. The book is based on creative and constructive learning. Students use their imagination to create good ideas. They also combine what they already know with what they learn in the classroom to construct new knowledge. The first is creative learning. The second is constructivism. This book provides solutions to both these aspects in a very convenient and proven manner. Twenty five percent of human beings are in the classroom, which means nearly three hundred million Indians are in the classroom. These three hundred million upgrade the remaining one hundred million Indians—a father, a mother and a brother or sister-- if their minds become creative and intelligent. This is possible if education becomes creative and students construct new knowledge instead of listening to lectures from teachers and rote-learning like parrots in the end to pass an examination. I request parents, teachers and students to read this book and use the revolutionary teaching technique and the central ideas that it advances. These will improved the minds of the students, make them concentrate on learning and help them to score exceptionally good marks without the pain of mindless rote-learning.

The book was written because the Department of Education, Government of Maharashtra wanted to make learning faster and progressive. Creative Educators, a registered NGO, has been demonstrating a revolutionary teaching technique in schools and colleges based on the concept of constructivism. National Curriculum Framework 2005 and the National Policy on Education also want constructivism in education. Constructivism can be achieved if teachers stop teaching through lectures and inspire students to think and construct new knowledge. There are hardly any signs in education that this is being carried out. Thousands of seminars are held on constructivism. However, students are not trained to construct knowledge. Constructivism means that a student constructs knowledge by combining what he knows and what is made available to him. The new knowledge that he constructs is as per his objectives and understanding. This construction of knowledge is possible if students read, speak, think, write and listen on the course material available. This improves if students discuss in permanent groups of six which contain good, bad and average students. This advances groups dynamics, peer learning and peer pressure. These are vital for learning. The technique of Creative Educators has been demonstrated on six million students. Written feedbacks from them have unanimous approval for the technique. Students said their concentration, learning and confidence improved by using the technique. The technique is explained in this book. The book advances constructivism to makes learning fast and progressive. We believe that this technique can make India rich and prosperous.

Scholars and statesmen have debated the influence of international commerce on war and peace for thousands of years. Over the centuries, analysts have generally treated the questions "Does international commerce influence security?" and "Do trade flows influence security?" as synonymous. In Producing Security, Stephen Brooks maintains that such an overarching focus on the security implications of trade once made sense but no longer does. Trade is no longer the primary means of organizing international economic transactions; rather, where and how multinational corporations (MNCs) organize their international production activities is now the key integrating force of global commerce. MNC strategies have changed in a variety of fundamental ways over the past three decades, Brooks argues, resulting in an increased geographic dispersion of production across borders. The author shows that the globalization of production has led to a series of shifts in the global security environment. It has a differential effect on security relations, in part because it does not encompass all countries and industries to the same extent. The book's findings indicate that the geographic dispersion of MNC production acts as a significant force for peace among the great powers. The author concludes that there is no basis for optimism that the globalization of production will promote peace elsewhere in the world. Indeed, he finds that it has a net negative influence on security relations among developing countries.

This volume provides a needed elaboration of theories and potential applications of constructivism in science education. Although the term "constructivism" is used widely, there has been a dearth of materials to guide science educators concerning the potential of constructivism to influence what is done in the field. In fact, there has been a tendency for constructivism to be viewed as a method that can be used in a classroom. This view tends to diminish the power of constructivism as a way of thinking about education, and in particular, about science education. The chapters in this book address the need to document the theoretical roots of constructivism and to describe how practitioners have applied constructivist oriented beliefs in the practice of K-12 teaching of science and mathematics, as well as teacher education. Not only does this book contain different theoretical perspectives on constructivism, but it also features a chapter that critiques constructivism as an epistemology. Specific topics covered include: * cooperative learning, * the negotiation of meaning, * problem centered learning, * social construction of knowledge, * science in culturally diverse settings, * curriculum planning and implementation, and * instructional technology. Issues associated with the preparation and enhancement of science teachers and the reform of science education are also explored.

This book is about the implications of constructivism for instructional design practices, and more importantly, it is about a dialogue between instructional developers and learning theorists. Working with colleagues in each discipline, the editors were amazed to find a general lack of familiarity with each others' work. From an instructional design perspective, it seems that the practice of instructional design must be based on some conception of how people learn and what it means to learn. From a learning theory perspective, it seems obvious that the value of learning theory rests in the ability to predict the impact of alternative learning environments or instructional practices on what is learned. Thus the interchange of ideas between these disciplines is essential. As a consequence of both the information rich environment and the technological capability, business is seen moving away from a fixed curriculum and toward providing information and instruction when it is needed. These changes bring about a window of opportunity establishing a dialogue that will provide for a richer understanding of learning and the instructional environment required to achieve that learning. The editors hope that this book is the beginning of the conversation and that it will serve to spur continued conversation between those involved in learning theory and those involved in the design of instruction.

The authors describe the work they are doing with individual clients in Milan. Locating themselves clearly within the tradition of the Milan approach and more recent social constructionist and narrative influences, and articulating continually a broad systemic framework emphasizing meaning problems in context and relationship, they introduce a range of ideas taken from psychoanalysis, strategic therapy, Gestalt therapy and narrative work. They describe the therapy as Brief/Long-term therapy and introduce new interviewing techniques, such as connecting the past, present and future in a way that releases clients and helps them construct new narratives for the future; inviting the patient to speak to the therapist as an absent family member; and working with the client to monitor their own therapy. The book is written with a freshness that suggests the authors are describing "work in progress", and the reader is privy to the authors' own thoughts and reactions as they comment on the process of their therapy cases. This is a demystifying book, for it allows the reader to understand why one particular technique was preferred over another.

Nothing that can be said is independent of us. Whatever can be said is coloured by our dreams and aspirations, by the way our brain works, by human nature and human culture. Whoever claims to know or to observe is - according to the central constructivist assumption - inescapably biased. This book presents the views of the founders of constructivism and modern systems theory, who are still providing stimulating cues for international scientific debate. The conversations of Heinz von Foerster, Ernst von Glasersfeld, Humberto R. Maturana, Francisco J. Varela, Gerhard Roth, Siegfried J. Schmidt, Helm Stierlin, and Paul Watzlawick with Bernhard Poerksen, display a kind of thinking that steers clear of rigid fixation and reveals the ideal of objectivity to be a myth. The conversations turn on the results of brain research, the breaks through of cybernetics, the linguistic determination of thought, and the intrinsic connection between epistemology and ethical practice. Throughout, the central figure of the observer is examined with sophisticated wit and just enough irritating grit to create the pearl in the oyster. Constructivism thus emerges as a philosophy of possibilities that keeps generating new points of view, insists on fundamental scepticism with regard to certainties and dogmas, and provides the foundation for an ethics of perception: Each and every one of us is responsible for their view of things.
