The best method for getting a child to engage in learning is to give them subjects that they are already interested in and use it as a vehicle to teach them. It could be a favorite book or even a pet. Therefore; if they are interested in picture books; the books that contain dogs can be used to develop their imagination. At this point; a parent or teacher can ask them to imagine stories about the dogs that appear in these books.

Ocular fixationBy todd ayoungWell written and thought provoking book with lots of insight into how our senses work to navigate our world and environment.The main theme of the book; is that our cultural fixation with our eyes; neglects the importance of the other human bodily sensors; such as touch; smell; hearing; to the detriment of our built environment. This detriment to our other senses; besides vision; is manifest; according to the author; in our thoughtless architectural surroundings; which is symtomatically displayed in societies obsession with the screen; our ultimate scopic fixation."The Eyes of the Skin" is not an original topic of contemporary concern. Ocular fixation has been investigated by many other writers including Hal Foster and Martin Jay for example. To Pallasmaas credit he does have extensive reseach included in the book by these various authors. What may be original about this book besides Pallasmaa being a practicing designer/architect; is that he has poetically penned his investigations to help his readers understand the interrelationship of the built environment to the human condition.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
