Mathematics Power Learning for Children: Activating the Contextual Learner : Book Two
by Everard Barrett Author
Our methodology stimulates the learning of mathematics by activating the same cognitive means by which children learn and retain stories: the ability to assimilate contextually related information. Virtually all children are competent contextual learners as demonstrated, not only by the learning of stories, but by the early mastery of their native language as well. At the core of the methodology is the awareness that mathematics is best retained by reconstruction rather than memorization. Consequently, it defines the antithesis of rote, and was created to eliminate rote learning (greatest source of remediation problems) from mathematics education forever.
