Multiple Intelligences Project for Creativity in ECE - Stage 1

This powerpoint outlines the beginning stages of a project which essentially seeks to increase the amount of expressed creativity (fluency) in preschool classes. The intervention is planned over eight sessions and adopts a multiple intelligences (MI) approach. The theoretical background, particularly for action research of this type, is discussed, as well as a proposed timeline for implementation. Brief overview of the results for the first session are included.

First Post

I am glad to have the opportunity to finally create a forum for the discussion and promotion of strategies for fostering higher order thinking skills (HOTS) in early childhood education (ECE). I will use this as an opportunity to both share my ongoing research in the area as well as to encourage interaction and collaboration among other researchers and educators who are working in similar areas. Please feel free to post comments and samples of your own research or strategies which you are currently implementing in your classroom. I hope that eventually, we can develop a community of practitioners who can learn from each other and contribute critically to the development of curricula, instructional strategies, resources, and approaches which most successfully and appropriate higher order thinking skills at this critical period of learning.

Welcome and feel free to contribute,

Jeffrey
