Videatives Inc Information

Videatives continues to implement its mission to make children's thinking visible through the use of short video clips with supporting text. This format (video plus text) has great potential to map theory to practice and to generate theory from practice. It is our belief that good teaching results from helping children explicate their current theories rather than from directly teaching a new theory. As our knowledge of children's intelligence grows, so does our ability to support the children's reflections on their thinking, their understandings and misconceptions about the social and physical world around them. Videative titles capture the details of what children know and how teachers can build from children's knowledge.
