E I in Education

Trials in Education

E I practitioners work mainly in businesses. Some work is done in educational institutions. A number of programmes have been run in higher education. In the UK, for example at

• Aston University
• Lancaster University
• London Business School

Several projects have also been trialled in schools.

• In the UK, at a comprehensive school.
• In the USA, at a Charter School.

Evidence is emerging that teaching thinking as an integrating language for learning, across all subjects, really brings dividends, because it:

• enhances all-round intelligence
• reveals the underlying thinking processes within all subjects
• values both critical thinking and creative thinking equally
• prepares students not just for the next stage in education, but for life as a whole.

E I is ideally suited for this since it is a language that is easy to learn and assimilate, giving a rounded picture of thinking. A research project conducted by Alastair Sandiforth demonstrated how quickly the E I language of thought can be learned and applied by 13 - 14 year olds.
