Instrumental Enrichment (FIE) Standard Level 1 (7 instruments)
8 / 10 day Certificate Course for teachers, lecturers, psychologists, parents and support staff working in Primary, Special, Secondary and Further Education.
Reuven Feuerstein's Instrumental Enrichment is a cognitive intervention programme which causes significant and powerful gains in student learning and achievement.
More than 1500 studies with a wide range of learner populations from countries around the world attest to the power of Feuerstein's methods in increasing students' cognitive performance, academic achievement and emotional intelligence.
IE provides an intensive and rigorous training programme that prepares the teacher or helper to correct deficiencies in fundamental thinking skills, provides students with the concepts, skills, strategies, operations and techniques necessary to function as independent learners, increases their motivation, develops students’ metacognition, and helps students learn how to learn and how to transfer learning.
FIE materials are organised into 7 instruments that comprise a series of pen and paper tasks, that increase in difficulty, are independent of content in any subject area and target the development of cognitive functions that are readily transferable to all educational and everyday life situations.
The course consists of 7 Instruments or units of work:
Organisation of Dots: learning how to inhibit impulsiveness, search systematically, transport visual images, develop strategies and develop precision and accuracy.
Orientation in Space 1 and 11: perceiving and projecting spatial relationships which leads to an understanding of interpersonal relationships. Reducing egocentricity, increasing flexibility of thinking and representational thinking.
Comparisons: learning to develop spontaneous comparative behaviour. Improving perception, precision and the ability to establish relationships.
Categorisation: learning how to organise information into superordinate categories. Grouping objects or events into sets and subsets.
Analytic Perception: learning to divide wholes into component parts and constructing wholes by projecting the relationships between the parts. Developing an analytic approach to life.
Illustrations: learning how to perceive problems and discover the solutions. Developing the ability to decode details, use hypothetical and inferential thinking. Learning how to perceive relationships.
