Psychological Theories
Drag words into the blanks.
Attempts to apply psychological theories to education can falter on the translation of the 1 into educational practice. Often, this translation is not clear. 2, when a program does not succeed, it is not clear whether the 3 of success was due to the inadequacy of the theory or the inadequacy of the implementation of the theory. A 4 of basic principles for translating a theory into practice can help clarify just what an educational implementation should (and should not) look like. This article presents 12 principles for translating a triarchic theory of successful intelligence into educational practice.
