Written by internationally renowned educator and researcher Robert Sternberg, this book is based on Sternberg's research-supported theory that students need to develop analytical, creative, and practical thinking abilities in order to acquire successful intelligence. It addresses the notion that many educational programs seem to develop people's intelligence in only one area-- analytical, and that students need all three to be successful in life. Chapter topics cover understanding successful intelligence; successful intelligence in life and in school; teaching for analytical thinking, creative thinking, and practical thinking; framing triarchic instruction and assessment units; and a comprehensive illustration of lessons for teaching for successful intelligence. For use as a reference or primer by all teachers of all grades.

In the decades since it was first introduced, Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences (MI) theory has transformed how people think about learning the world over. Educators using the theory have achieved remarkable success in helping all students, including those who learn in nontraditional ways, to navigate school (and life outside it) with confidence and success. Within the context of classroom instruction, no author besides Gardner has done more to popularize MI theory than Thomas Armstrong, whose best seller Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom has become a bona fide education classic in its own right. This expanded fourth edition provides educators at all levels with everything they need to apply MI theory to curriculum development, lesson planning, assessment, special education, cognitive skills, career development, educational policy, and more. In addition to the many strategies, templates, and examples that have made Armstrong's book so enduringly popular, this edition is updated to examine how emerging neurodiversity research, trends toward greater instructional personalization, and rapidly evolving virtual learning tools have affected the use of MI theory to enhance student achievement. It also includes brand-new lesson plans aligned to nationwide standards and a revised list of resources for further study.

Building Intelligent Interactive Tutors discusses educational systems that assess a student's knowledge and are adaptive to a student's learning needs. The impact of computers has not been generally felt in education due to lack of hardware, teacher training, and sophisticated software. and because current instructional software is neither truly responsive to student needs nor flexible enough to emulate teaching. Dr. Woolf taps into 20 years of research on intelligent tutors to bring designers and developers a broad range of issues and methods that produce the best intelligent learning environments possible, whether for classroom or life-long learning. The book describes multidisciplinary approaches to using computers for teaching, reports on research, development, and real-world experiences, and discusses intelligent tutors, web-based learning systems, adaptive learning systems, intelligent agents and intelligent multimedia. It is recommended for professionals, graduate students, and others in computer science and educational technology who are developing online tutoring systems to support e-learning, and who want to build intelligence into the system. Combines both theory and practice to offer most in-depth and up-to-date treatment of intelligent tutoring systems available Presents powerful drivers of virtual teaching systems, including cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and the Internet Features algorithmic material that enables programmers and researchers to design building components and intelligent systems

In the past ten years of pastoral vocation as a Catholic Priest, I have dedicated not less than eight years in apostolates intrinsically tied to mentoring of young people and classroom teaching. After completing my bachelor''s degree; I worked for six years as a secondary school principal in Nigeria before I received the call to come over to Europe for the continuation of my ministerial experience and learning. In all these years, both from studies and in practical experience, I have realized that education is meant to enhance the lives of people and improve them. In the course of researching for my Master''s degree, I became aware of the concept of emotional intelligence. I saw in it an apt and timely addendum to the entire course of research and to educational research in particular. The fact is that human life, its reality and goals is the very context inside which learning should be done and for which learning is done. This is what makes education have meaning and determines its usefulness, and it is only in this context that we can say that education prepares one for life and its challenges. Directly or indirectly, emotional intelligence makes a contribution to preparation for living in the modern world. Educational enterprise is not exclusive to the activities that take place within the four walls of a formal classroom. I accept the educational learning theory which says that learning is everywhere for a conscious mind, though it always needs to be tuned and guided. In fact there are a huge number of para-teachers, such as parents, coaches, mentors, pastors, inspirers, trainers and leaders, who do not know the extent to which their day-to-day teachings and drilling of others affect the psychology of society at large. This is because the teaching, mentoring and coaching of such para-teachers influences the emotional intelligence of their followers and learners, most often in a positive way. Emotional intelligence was a ground-breaking theory developed by Daniel Goleman, not only on to teach how best to teach and inspire, but also to make an important link between the learning achievement of the classroom and success in real life situations. This is called knowledge transfer in education. Everyone knows that there has been a fear springing from the evidence that the student''s ability to attain high academic scores in class work does not guarantee certainty for success in practical life after school. Practical evidence based on this statement is everywhere. We find people saying that life is larger than logic. Others say that school is one thing and life is another thing. The fact that many intellectual luminaries finish their education and come out to see themselves staggering and stumbling uneasily through the ups and downs of life, for which they have no already educationally-fashioned answers in their head, may not only indicate the limitations of their studied subject areas and knowledge in general, but also posits a question about what "intelligence" is. Could this be why so many do not have the motivation to go to school or at least to further their studies? When challenges come at times, knowledge often seems insufficient. However, when knowledge is linked to the concept of emotional intelligence, also called Intelligence2 (or Intelligence squared), or to put it simply when what one learns with the intellect is connected with what one has to face in life, there is a high probability of relative success in real life. That is why in this book the focus is on how school or academic work could be made more relevant, leading to some doing well in "life after school", in situations like marriage and friendship, child development and upbringing, leadership, nursing care, teacher competence, success in business and sales, pastoral work, public speaking, etc. This important breakthrough was made because a link was found in the human brain between the thinking brain, called the neocortex, and the emotional brain, called the amygdala, and their functions with regard to human actions and achievements. In general, emotional intelligence has placed a big question mark over our former way of measuring human intelligence and has, at the same time, evidently improved it. The emotional intelligence theory has not only managed to explain why one could do well in school but may not do well in real life, but has also discovered ways to link academic achievements with commensurate success in life. Taking from the findings of Daniel Goleman "that emotional intelligence could be taught", this work points the way to enhancing normal traditional teaching skills by developing the emotional intelligence of students, and in so doing creating a functional learning experience for others, both adults and the young alike. Emotional intelligence for me does not quarrel in any way with our existing academic methods but seeks to improve them though through a reactivation of our consciousness of our intra and inter personal skills. In fact, if education means that people should be more socially aware and achieve educational results that help them to become better, more caring citizens, then emotional intelligence is apt. There is no doubt that emotional intelligence has come to convert education into an instrument which makes man more humane. Humane behaviour is an expression of feelings and emotions; if the emotional intelligence of people can be improved, then this will lead to better ways of dealing with crisis situations and relationships as it reorientates their way of thinking and doing things. Emotional intelligence creates zeal for and encourages openness to new information and capacity building. Emotional intelligence doesn''t only acknowledge this fact but propagates and teaches how to channel one''s emotions to move life and the world forward in a positive way. This type of intelligence will do much service to the entire educational enterprise. Old institutions like religion will see in Intelligence2 how not to allow its true spark to fade away in the modern times as mentalities continuously change. In short, this is how emotional intelligence has created a mark and broken records of being the most acceptable type of intelligence; penetrating all the departments of life, which embrace its promise of maximum performance with excitement. With professional curiosity set afire in this area of research, I have been inspired to invite you to walk along with me on this path of great discovery that has made a great impact on all human concerns and progress. In this intelligence trek, we shall move, starting from the point of view of classroom teaching and learning, making some important connections and then looking into how emotional intelligence has made remarkable waves as very useful practical applications of knowledge in everyday life ranging from academics, management, health care, family life, pastoral work, counselling, public speaking, to business and sales and more. Let us find out how emotional intelligence seems to be pointing our focus towards that long expected "golden age of the human race" which has made it receive heart-warming recognition from all around the world, and been acclaimed an important "aha!" answer of our time.

What does it really mean to be intelligent? Ron Ritchhart presents a new and powerful view of intelligence that moves beyond ability to focus on cognitive dispositions such as curiosity, skepticism, and open mindedness. Arguing persuasively for this new conception of intelligence, the author uses vivid classroom vignettes to explore the foundations of intellectual character and describe how teachers can enculturate productive patterns of thinking in their students. Intellectual Character presents illustrative, inspiring stories of exemplary teachers to help show how intellectual traits and thinking dispositions can be developed and cultivated in students to promote successful learning. This vital book provides a model of authentic and powerful teaching and offers practical strategies for creating classroom environments that support thinking.

This book focuses on five key areas: self-awareness innovative and inventive thinking independent enquiry collaborative learning communication skills. Dealing in an engaging way with social and emotional aspects of learning, personalised learning, thinking skills and social inclusion, the authors offer teachers all of the necessary tools to help pupils build life- and people-skills which will extend beyond school. It will be of interest to all practising teachers, teaching assistants and school counsellors working with young people.

This book shares insights drawn from the diverse voices of public school teachers, community outreach education workers, professors, writers, poets, artists, and musicians on suffering in school and the classroom. Teachers speak about their own encounters with and perceptions from suffering using critical-analytic textual works, as well as first-hand personally reflective accounts. By sharing their stories and reflections, the editors and contributors shed light upon the dark areas that often are not addressed in Teacher Training Programs, and that generally remain unaddressed and unacknowledged even as teachers become well-established as professionals in the field of education.

Since the release of the very successful first edition in 2001, the field of emotional intelligence has grown in sophistication and importance. Many new and talented researchers have come into the field and techniques in EI measurement have dramatically increased so that we now know much more about the distinctiveness and utility of the different EI measures. There has also been a dramatic upswing in research that looks at how to teach EI in schools, organizations, and families. In this second edition, leaders in the field present the most up-to-date research on the assessment and use of the emotional intelligence construct. Importantly, this edition expands on the previous by providing greater coverage of emotional intelligence interventions. As with the first edition, this second edition is both scientifically rigorous, yet highly readable and accessible to a non-specialist audience. It will therefore be of value to researchers and practitioners in many disciplines beyond social psychology, including areas of basic research, cognition and emotion, organizational selection, organizational training, education, clinical psychology, and development psychology.
