F. I. E. Basic Level 1 Workshop
Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment
for Young Children: I. E. Basic Level 1
A Five-Day Intensive Workshop
by Prof. Louis H. Falik,
Certified Trainer, International Centre for the Enhancement of Learning Potential (ICELP), Jerusalem.
THE FEUERSTEIN INSTRUMENTAL ENRICHMENT PROGRAM [FIE] is based on the work of internationally renowned Israeli Psychologist Prof. Reuven Feuerstein, whose work with children affected by the Holocaust resulted in the setting up of the International Centre for the Enhancement of the Learning Potential. IE is an intervention program designed to modify the cognitive structure of students, in classrooms and individually with diverse populations ranging from low functioning performers to gifted underachievers, adult populations in industrial settings and continuing education. The program aims at correcting deficient cognitive functions and enhancing the individual’s capacity to learn more effectively from direct exposure in formal as well as informal learning situations.
Instrumental Enrichment for Young Children (IE-BASIC I) introduces a series of mostly non-verbal instruments to be used with younger children or children with low performance level, including:
ü Program goals and methods of application.
ü Ways of attending to the development of basic cognitive functions, verbal and conceptual tools, spatial and temporal concepts and representational activities.
ü Methods of promoting reflective thinking and internal motivation, and the development of the child’s feeling as a generator of information rather than a passive reproducer of information;
ü Practice in new instruments adapted to the early stages of child development.

Brain Gym
MAHARASHTRA DYSLEXIA ASSOCIATION
In association with
ROSHAN BAHAR G
ADVANCED CONSULTANT FACILITATOR, 3-IN-1 CONCEPTS, USA
Presents
Once Again Due to Popular Demand
THE “GETTING BETTER” WORKSHOPS
THIS SELF-HELP SERIES AIMS TO EQUIP PARTICIPANTS WITH TOOLS TO UNDERSTANDING AND RELEASING STRESS THROUGH SIMPLE, EASY-TO-USE TECHNIQUES.
1. TOOLS OF THE TRADE:
20th October to 25th October 2009, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
An exciting 6-day workshop where you will learn the muscle-testing technique that helps you identify and release past negative stress which manifests within the body as physical pain and other types of problems like:
Depression, Insomnia, Fear of Failure, Obesity, Constant Fatigue, Loss of Libido, Addictions, Headaches, Allergies, Poor Grades, Muscular Tension, Aggression, Nail-Biting, Dizziness, Palpitations, Excessive Sweating, Anxiety, Loss of Appetite, Constant Frustration, Indecision.
Fees
Tools of the Trade: Rs 7500/- (Inclusive of manual & stationery)
Rs 5500/- for old students
UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES
This workshop is part of a series from 3-in-One Concepts, USA.
Even before birth, and throughout our lives, we are exposed to feelings, emotions and situations, which form the basis for our belief systems. When the emotions and situations experienced are negative, they create tremendous negative stress. Muscle-testing is used to access the information locked in cellular memory.
This negative stress interferes with our ability to respond appropriately to present-time situations, and our performance suffers. Coming into contact with the cause of yesterday’s fears with present time awareness, presents us with the opportunity to release the stress of old negative emotions, feelings and beliefs and opens doors to endless possibilities for positive change through precision. Participants will receive certification from 3-in-One Concepts on completion of each programme.
BRAIN GYM & BEYOND
21st October to 25th October 2009, 5 p.m.-7 p.m.
Learn body co-ordination exercises that help co-ordinate left and right brain and thus make learning stress free. Doing these exercises also helps in concentration in all aspects of a student’s life from sports to classroom activities; and helps build a child’s self-esteem, confidence and social integration skills.
Edu-K’s Brain Gym
Brain Gym, has been developed by Paul Dennison, a professional educator and a pioneer in the field of applied brain research. He is the author of the system of mind-body integration known as Educational Kinesiology, of which Brain Gym is the first step. It enables a student or an adult to integrate experience with the whole brain, and thus helps increase the performance of the brain. By understanding how the brain works, we can maximize the innate potential of the brain.
Fees Rs. 5500/- (including manuals)
Discounts for those registering for more than one workshop:
Tools of the Trade + Brain Gym: Rs 7500/- + Rs. 4000/- = Rs 11,500/-
Tools of the Trade + Brain Gym: Rs 5500/- + Rs. 4000/- = Rs 9,500/- (for old students)
Fees are inclusive of tea, coffee & biscuits. Lunch to be carried by the participants.
