Abstract

The multidimensional approach to education has existed for quite a long time. For instance, educators in the early and mid-19th Century, such as Edward Séguin (Montessori, 1965), already had ideas about physical and mental training. Froebel’s (1894) Mother-Play and Nursery Songs aimed toward the development of the whole child. Rich in songs with lyrics, the book contained activities designed to develop empathy in children through play with their mothers. Moreover, the book is full of beautiful illustrations and kinesthetic activities. Also, Thurstone (1938) designed intelligence testing method for measuring abstraction, verbal, spatial, numerical, numerical figure recognition, and other abilities.
