Integrated Education Model
Clark-Brain/Mind
The brain can be organized into four main functional areas:
1.Cognitive processes (linear/rational + spatial/gestalt)
2.Physical and Sensing processes
3.Emotional/Affective and Social processes
4.Intuitive processes
Intelligence can no longer be confined to the cognitive functions but must include all functions. Giftedness, regardless of how it is expressed, can be nurtured and enhanced by this model because of the decentralized and personalized organization and use of the total brain function.
