Description

Mind of a Child

How can children adapt and do more than survive in neighborhoods where violence is common? How can they learn in schools where teachers have given up on them? This challenging documentary follows the successful work of Lorna Williams,who set out to help aboriginal children in Canada who are dropping out of school, losing hope, and committing suicide in terrifying numbers. Her search led her to Reuven Feuerstein, an Israeli psychologist who began his work with the children of the Holocaust.

Feuerstein's ideas provide deep insight into the way children learn. Lornareturned to Canada with a renewed approach to teaching that reveals the intelligence andability of the children, and helps them to build missing skills. The samemethods prove useful with children at risk in the inner-city neighborhoodsof Washington, D.C. Feuerstein's mediated learning theory and teaching methods, asadapted by Lorna Williams, have been recommended by the Canadian Royal Commissionon Aboriginal Peoples.
