Beskrivning

Arguing that a comprehensive theoretical overhaul of mainstream educational psychology is long overdue, Rethinking Intelligence suggests criteria upon which new models can be developed. The contributors reconceptualize educational psychology through a democratic vision of inclusivity that takes into account the culturally inscribed nature of research. They offer a theoretical and historical critique of how intelligence is measured in ways that exclude or ignore other criteria. By doing so, they hope to encourage educators and researchers to imagine new forms of intelligence, education, and life.

Recensioner i media

"This volume sparkles with the critical and creative energy of scholars and educators whose primary concern is with education that serves students on their own grounds, and helps our society realize the riches of diversity. It's jut this kind of work that enables us to see that psychological assumptions are always born of socio-political context, and that we can never rest content with the pedagocial status quo." -- Kenneth J. Gergen, Swarthmore College"The editors of this volume have set themselves an awesome task in challenging the fundamental assumptions of psychology. In short they 'politicize cognition,' something that has been largely ignored but is desperately overdue. This book should be read by all who have an interest in matters educational." -- --John Smyth, Foundation Professor of Teacher Education and Director, Flinders Institute for the Study of Teaching, Flinders University of South Australia
