"From the constructivist perspective, every field has its unique ways of knowing and the overarching goal is to move the learner into thinking within the knowledge domain as an expert of that domain might think. In geography, for example, the goal would not be to teach geography facts or principles but to teach learners to use the domain of geographic information as a cartographer, geographer or navigator might do. Just as the cartographer or geographer must bring new perspectives to bear and construct a particular understanding or interpretation of a situation, so too must the learner. And just as different geographers identify different relevant information and come to different conclusions, we must also leave identification of relevant information and 'correct' solutions open in the teaching situation. The process of constructing a perspective or understanding and developing reflexive awareness of that process are essential to the constructive view of learning." pp.96-97.

Fingers-crossed please! 

I've contacted Pavilion Publishing and Media Ltd with a review copy request of this new book - available for pre-order:

"Talking with a Map takes cutting-edge techniques for structuring and navigating conversations out of the therapy room and into everyday life, describing a versatile method that anyone can use to develop better skills, interactions and relationships."

Working with two co-authors three papers will hopefully (yes - cross them again) be complete soon. Then I can resurrect the piece on case formulation, diagrams and Hodges' model. 

If anyone is interested please get in touch:

The cognitive map ...

"... in infra-humans should be viewed as a spatial map in which representations of objects experienced in the environment are ordered within a framework generating a unitary space. However, the central property of the locale system is its ability to order representations in a structured context. We hope to show, in this final section of the book, that mapping structures can represent verbal, as well as non-verbal, information. For both of these forms the locale system will be shown to be central to a particular form of memory: that concerned with the representation of experiences within a specific context. We shall argue that memory comes in two basic varieties: (1) memory for items, independent of the time or place of their occurrence; (2) memory for items or events within a spatio-temporal context." p.380-381.
