New Releases by Howard Gardner

The groundbreaking work of Harvard University psychologist Howard Gardner on multiple intelligences and Tufts University psychologist David Henry Feldman on nonuniversal development is fast becoming the standard by which children''s intelligence and cognitive development is understood. In this landmark three-volume set, Mara Krechevsky and her colleagues at Project Zero make these insights available for both teachers and scholars alike. This curriculum resource provides enriching activities in a wide variety of disciplines, including mechanics and construction, movement, and music.

In this volume three of the key figures in the field set out to establish some parameters for the study of creativity. After examining the earlier works on the subject, they present their current research findings, and then attempt to project where the field is likely to go in the decade ahead. Gardner, the proponent of biological aspects of creativity, ranges widely as he examines Freud''s Vienna and the features of medicine that both constrained and challenged his revolutionary idea. Csikszentmihalyi, with his exploration of genes and memes, examines individual issues as well as broader contextual concerns. Feldman concentrates on the notions of coincidence and the transformational imperative. These essays point to the rejuvenation of the field of creativity research, and suggest where the field is likely to move in the future. This work is a major synthesis of value to advanced researchers as well as students and all those concerned with creativity.

El antiguo problema de los diferentes tipos de inteligencia, presente desde el origen de la psicolog a cient fica en el siglo XlX, es evocado y analizado en este libro a la luz de enfoques m s avanzados y tras una cuidadosa revisi n de la bibliograf a internacional.

Abstract: Six chapters by various second generation television researchers address recent studies in the continuing effort to understand and define how television''s unique communication process works and to assess television impact on human cognitive development. The chapter topics include: the relationship between real life and the child''s ability to distinguish between varieties of television fare; children''s appreciation and understanding of the television superhero; how the child comes to understand materials encountered on television, particularly those in narrative form; and cross-media studies of television and books to distinguish which effects are due primarily to the medium itself and which are more readily attributed to general developmental factors. Two chapters are devoted to theoretical projections that seek to combine present diverse lines of research and identify a program for future study. An index is included. (emc).

Psychologists have long understood that the art works of children relate to their intellectual and emotional development but this is the first book to describe the developmental process of drawing. Ga

Perspective ale minții (publicată inițial în 1983) este cartea prin care Gardner face cunoscută și explică pertinent, cu exemple din diferite domenii, Teoria Inteligențelor Multiple, cea care a inspirat deopotrivă profesori, lideri în educație sau pedagogi să ia în considerare că avem de-a face cu mai multe tipuri de inteligență umană. Conform teoriei lui Gardner, toți oamenii posedă anumite tipuri de inteligență, axate fiecare pe un anumit domeniu și dezvoltate în funcție de anumite abilități, care sunt localizate în diferite zone ale creierului (în emisfera stângă sau în cea dreaptă) și care pot funcționa atât împreună, cât și separat. Astfel, inteligența umană poate fi lingvistică, muzicală, spațială, logico-matematică, fizico-chinestezică, spațială sau personală.

Prima ediție a Inteligențelor multiple. Noi perspective a fost publicată în 1993, la zece ani după Perspective ale minții, cartea care a făcut revoluție în sistemul de educație din întreaga lume. Aici, Howard Gardner analizează inteligențele multiple folosindu-se de exemple notabile, precum Helen Keller, T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, Babe Ruth sau Yehudi Menuhin, și urmărește cum a fost primită teoria sa în sistemele educaționale care au adoptat-o și au transformat-o în curriculă de bază.

O educador Howard Gardner busca redefinir os conceitos de verdadeiro, belo e bom na modernidade. Como saber o que é verdadeiro na era da internet, com sua profusão de informações? Como identificar o belo quando a arte choca mais do que deleita? Como distinguir o bom do mau quando a moral é politizada e relativizada? Neste livro Gardner tenta rastrear as transformações das concepções de tais virtudes e descrever os desafios para dar sentido a elas no dia a dia e na educação das crianças.
