Learning happens slowly and consistently. Take for example the process we went through when we learned to read. There were steps, from holding a book the right way up, to recognising letters to phonetics, years of practising and finally fluency. It’s not actually that hard to learn to read for neurotypical kids, but you do have to develop building blocks and commit to regular practise. It is the willingness to practise that contributes to success as a student.
Consistency is becoming less common in adolescents. Some of the areas most affected by teens’ lack of consistency are mathematics, music and languages. In each of these areas, there needs to be a mastery of some basic skills that only comes with practise.
Gardner (1993) argues that the development of the different modules of, e.g., linguistic, logico-mathematical, spatial, kinaesthetic and ‘personal’ (feelings/relationships) intelligences is genetically pre-programmed. However, he regards it as open to “developmental plasticity”, and thus to educational assistance. He spells out educational implications, arguing that children’s distinctive “profiles of intelligences” on entering school indicate need to provide school experiences which develop most effectively their genetically pre-programmed capacities.
Serious consideration of Gardner’s argument by the education system would raise many questions about the nature of the most desirable curriculum and the need for differentiation and specialisation
Failure is one of the greatest tools in the learning process. Unfortunately, too many people are simply overwhelmed by the feeling of failure rather than being able to stand back and look at the lessons it can teach us. Having the tenacity to stare down failure is an extraordinary skill.
