"Reframing" as an Innovative Educational Technique

Daniel Eckstein

Abstract

New learnings are inhibited by early formed paradigms. Reframing, forming new impressions, creates a new version of habitual patterns. This article presents specific reframing techniques as: Senoi dreamwork; neuro-linguistic programming; cognitive restructuring; and the Adlerian psychology technique of turning a perceived 'negative' into a 'positive'. It concludes with specific suggestions for educators and an example of reframing by a seventh grade teacher.
