Povzetek

Primarna vloga NTC programa je uporaba novih odkritij na področju nevroznanosti v učilnicah in v vsakdanjem življenju. Igra kot notranja potreba otrok je ključni faktor NTC programa. Za program so značilne tri uporabne faze. Sestavni deli prve faze so evolutivno podporne aktivnosti za katere so značilne kompleksne motorične aktivnosti vključno z veščinami fine motorike, dinamična akomodacija očesa, rotacija, ravnovesje in gibanje. Druga faza NTC programa vključuje apstraktne klasifikacije, seriacije in asociacije. Tretja faza NTC programa so razvoj divergentnega, konvergentnega mišljenja in funkcionalnega znanja. Vse tri faze ponazarjajo senzorno-motričen in kognitiven razvoj otrok.

Ključne besede: NTC sistem učenja, kognitivni razvoj, učenje skozi igru

Primary intention of the NTC Program is the practical implementation of new discoveries from the field of educational neuroscience in classrooms and everyday life. Play, as an intrinsic need of a child, represents the key factor of NTC program implementation. The program is characterized by three implementation phases. Integral part of the first phase are evolutionary accordant activities, characterized by the complex motor activities, including fine motor skills, dynamic eye accommodation, rotation, balance, and movement. The second phase of NTC program is characterized by abstract classifications, abstract seriations, and association, while the goal of the third phase is the development of divergent and convergent thinking, and functional knowledge. Those three phases encompass sensory-motor and cognitive development of children.

Key words: NTC learning system, cognitive development, learning through play
