  • Educating Young Children in Math, Science, and Technology
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 416 993 PS 026 271 AUTHOR Elkind, David TITLE Educating Young Children in Math, Science, and Technology. PUB DATE 1998-02-00 NOTE 16p.; Paper presented at the Forum on Early Childhood Science, Mathematics, and Technology Education (Washington, DC, February 6-8, 1998). PUB TYPE Guides Non-Classroom (055) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Abstract Reasoning; Concept Formation; *Early Childhood Education; Learning Motivation; Learning Processes; *Mathematics Education; Parent Role; *Science Education; Teaching Methods; Technology; Thinking Skills; Young Children ABSTRACT This paper asserts that any intellectually responsible program to instruct young children in math, science, and technology must overcome at least three seemingly insurmountable obstacles:(1) adults' inability to discover, either by reflection or analysis, the means by which children acquire science and technology concepts;(2) the fact that young children think differently from adults and do not organize their world along the same lines as do older children and adults; and (3) the fact that young children have their own curriculum priorities and construct their own math, science, and technology concepts which while age appropriate, may appear wrong from an adult perspective. After considering each of these obstacles, the paper offers suggestions as to how they can be best overcome:(1) the importance of observing young children's learning in order to make instructional decisions that truly reflect children's learning needs and processes;(2) the need to recognize the limits of instruction--for example, young children think transductively, and this limits the possibility of teaching abstract concepts; and (3) the value of employing capacity-linked and socially derived motivation, engaging the spontaneous learning motivation children experience as their cognitive capacity increases.

  • Hawaii DHS Approved Ongoing Training List
    HI DHS APPROVED ONGOING TRAINING LIST For Resource Caregivers Effective January 1, 2013 This list is adapted from and with permission from the Indiana Department of Child Services (DCS) The DCS document was entitled “Approved Alternative In-Service Training List” The Hawai`i Department of Human Services (DHS) requires each resource family to successfully complete 6 hours of training annually following completion of their initial licensure. The six hours of training can be fulfilled by attending in-person “traditional” trainings or training alternatives as listed below. In addition, there may be situations where a DHS social worker will require a specific training for specific situations (eg., needs of child in placement --age, special needs, etc.). Training means planned and organized activity designed to impart skills, techniques and methodologies to a resource caregiver or a group to assist: 1) in maintaining the safety, stability and well-being of children in foster care who reside in their home; 2) and in embracing and supporting the birth family towards reunification or placement with relatives and maintaining connections with family and culture; 3) and to provide support to the resource family. Training must be relevant to the foster care process; meeting the emotional, cultural, developmental, physical, educational, special needs of the child/youth in their care; supporting, mentoring, engaging the birth family; working as a team; impact of fostering has on the resource family; etc. Guidance is provided by DHS-CWS Licensing Units. Training Requirements are to be in compliance with Federal and State Laws, Hawaii Administrative Rules, and/or Department of Human Services- Child Welfare Services Procedures.

  • CREATION TOS SPEARS the Myth of Socialization
    The Myth of Socialization Diane S. Spears, Ed.D. It is my opinion that if socializing is a problem for homeschool families, it is rare. I am a retired teacher with experience in public, private, and homeschool settings. It was not possible to homeschool our son, because I had to work, but with hindsight I wish I had been able to work out the hindrances. Our son was private Christian schooled entirely, and we expected our values and biblical training to be supported. But the result was a not-deep-enough biblical reinforcing from that source, and he was exposed to negative elements that I didn't expect to find in a private Christian school. We did not learn about that until he told us after he graduated. He was afraid we would cause trouble at the school for him if we knew. Because we did not homeschool him, our influence was limited to evenings, weekends, church, and summers. Our son has become a fine man with a family and has overcome many of the pressures he was exposed to--through much prayer. Since retiring, I have conducted private and group art lessons for homeschool families. I am also assisting with children's church in which public, private, and homeschool children attend. The difference in the student conduct between the three groups is remarkable. It boils down to respect for authority and for other people. We all recognize the disrespect in public schools, but it was an eye-opener for me to have to teach basic respect to a surprising number of private school students.

  • Piagetian and Psychometric Conceptions of Intelligence
    Piagetian and Psychometric Conceptions of Intelligence DAVID ELKIND, University of Rochester Professor Elkind devotes much of his discussion to the concept of intelligence. He finds both similarities and differences when comparing the Piagetian descrip­ tion of intelligence with Jensen's (and the psychometrician's) definition of in­ telligence. Operating from quite different assumptions than those of J. McV. Hunt (Piaget's Structuralism, rather than neurology) Elkind also finds reason to believe that intelligence is developed in experience. For Piaget and Elkind, in­ telligence is "an extension of biological adaptation" and is characterized by ability to assimilate (develop in response to internal processes) and accommodate (respond to environmental intrusions). I have been asked to respond to Professor Jensen's paper from the standpoint of Piaget's genetic psychology of intelligence. While I clearly cannot speak for Piaget, only the "Patron" can do that, I can react as someone steeped in Piagetian theory and research and as one who looks at cognitive problems from the Gene• van perspective. Accordingly, while I hope that what I have to say would be acceptable to Piaget, I cannot guarantee that this is in fact the case, and must take full responsibility for whatever is said below. I plan to discuss, in the first section of the paper, some of the similarities between the Piagetian and psycho• metric positions. Then, in the second section, some of their differences will be pointed out. Finally, in the third section, I want to consider two related practical issues regarding the modification of intelligence. 319 Conceptual Similarities What struck me in reading Professor Jensen's paper, and what had not really occurred to me before, were the many parallels and affinities between the psy• chometric or mental test approach to the problem of intelligence and the devel• opmental approach as represented by Piaget.
