Positive change occurs
FIE is an extraordinary cognitive intervention program
that can be used as a classroom curriculum or one-on-one.
FIE is based on the concept that anyone can learn to think better regardless of age or condition.
Sixty years ago, Reuven Feuerstein, a Romanian cognitive psychologist, worked with refugee survivors (children and adults) to help improve their brain functions after the atrocities they experienced during WWII. This program expanded into a method of intervention that systematically helps any individual to think better for a lifetime. It is administered by a practitioner through a series of activities or “instruments” that targets all known cognitive functions.
This cognitive program has 60 years of case studies and research data evidencing significant changes in individuals who have been guided through the program. It is administered in 80 countries and translated into 16 languages.
What are cognitive functions?
Cognitive functions are the thinking skills we use every conscious moment. They are the tools that enable us to navigate through our lives and problem solve. The great news is that just as we can improve in sports, music, driving, carpentry, etc., we can also strengthen and improve the way we think for a lifetime! Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment (FIE) program has benefited thousands of individuals worldwide from pre-school to college and beyond.
Intelligence is not fixed—it can and does improve!
The brain is changed by the tasks imposed on it.
Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment provides those tasks in a purposeful, productive,
deliverable way.
