Vader, thanks for the information on the course.
You did hit on something that some educators/psychologist believe is the
wrong approach and that is appealing to one's 'dominant intelligence'. They
contend(if anyone has more information, please feel free to elucidate/correct)
that there are mental blockages i.e. undeveloped brain functions and that people tend
to overcompensate for these defeciencies by depending on developed brain functions
(dominant intelligence).
Deborah Sunbeck advocates using a method she calls the 'infinity walk', while Win Wenger
believes 'image streaming' to stimuate these other areas.
As far as accelerated learing goes, I'd imagine that anything that increases the rate at
which one can learn would be considered 'accelerated' -- speed reading, photoreading,
mnemonics, etc.
