**************************************
ABSTRACT: The work of psychologist Reuven Feuerstein is discussed 
with an emphasis on articles extolling his practices by Myron Tribus, 
former Director of the Center for Advanced Engineering Study at MIT. 
Tribus has studied Feuerstein's ideas intensively and has obtain 
first-hand knowledge of his practices by attending workshops led by 
Feuerstein in Jerusalem. It is concluded that "active learning" DOES 
need a theory and that theory should at least be consistent with the 
pioneering work of Feuerstein.
