The Power of Imitation and Modeling

Dehradun Uttarakhand

Imitation is one of the most powerful learning and teaching tools that we have, and yet, we often fail to use its potential to teach positive and adaptive competencies and behaviors. When we hear the word imitation, we generally think of a relatively simple process of seeing something and then copying it – and indeed, imitation is one of the most primitive learning modes of all.
