Learning Comes to Life

Learning Comes to Life
By:Ellen Ilfeld
Published on 1996-01 by High/Scope Foundation

The High/Scope Institute for IDEAS began in the early 1960s as a summer camp program and is now a dynamic learning program for teens that emphasizes working with them in an environment which supports emotional, social, and intellectual development. The High/Scope model for adolescent programs is based on the following principles: (1) adolescents need a safe psychological environment; (2) adolescents need a chance to make new beginnings; (3) adolescents need program activities designed to relate to their developmental stages; and (4) adolescents need to be given genuine responsibility. This book describes the High/Scope model in the following chapters: (1) |The High/Scope Institute for IDEAS Program--The Beginnings and Evolution,| giving the history of the institute along with its philosophy and long- and short-term benefits; (2) |Who Are the Participants and What Do They Need?| focusing on developmental characteristics, tasks and developmental gains, and meeting adolescent needs; (3) |Creating a Supportive Context for Learning,| outlining the program schedule and daily routine and also discussing psychological and physical safety, expectations, and adult participation; (4) |The Educational Approach,| dealing with the five essential components of choice, active learning, plan-do-review, cooperative learning, and leadership development; (5) |Learning Potential Within the Institute Setting|; and (6) |Lessons Learned: Beyond the High/Scope Institute Model.| (Contains 21 references.)
