Cross cultural and Interdimensional Implications of Feuerstein's Construct of Mediated Learning Experience

Mervyn Skuy

University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa

The central construct of Feuerstein's theory of structural cognitive modifiability, Mediated Learning Experience (MLE), is an important basis on which to understand and promote functioning in the cognitive and emotional spheres, as well as in relation to one's own culture and that of others. The multidimensional nature of MLE serves to render it a significant mechanism in affording reconciliation and promoting integration among aspects of individuals and groups that may otherwise remain disparate, or in conflict. Thus, in this article, the cognitive, emotional and cultural dimensions of MLE are explicitly elaborated as a basis for demonstrating the role of the construct in enhancing cross cultural integration, and in affording a holistic and integrative approach to the education process. The article also proposes the notion of mediating/mediated cultures, as well as the idea of a cognitive approach to intercultural coexistence.
