Professor
Lou Falik and Marilynn Falik have visited India,
Sri Lanka, and Malaysia in October of 2003. They
have presented workshops on the application of mediated
learning experiene for parents and childcare providers
in Mumbai, Chennai, Colombo, Kuala Lumpur,and Johor
Baru. The response has been well received, by over
500 participants in these locations. In several
of these places, Lou and Marilynn have seen parents,
consulted with them regarding their concerns about
their children, and conducted LPAD assessments.
Wherever these activities occur, there are requests
for more services, and training. In several places,
the new programs for younger children, the FIE-Basic
and LPAD Basic have been introduced. In addition,
in Chennai, India, 22 people participated in a LPAD
Level I workshop. Planning is underway for more
workshops and activities, as more and more people
(teachers, psychologists, parents, and school adminisrators)
become familiar with mediated learning and cognitive
modifiability possibilities and potentials. |
