Abstract:

In 1972, an organization was established in the USA to use the techniques of L. Ron Hubbard (1911-1986), founder of the Church of Scientology, in the field of science and education. Applied Scholastics, using learning technology, started with a number of projects, the main goal of which, then declared and still valid, was to promote and develop effective education programs for teachers, business trainers, educators, parents, children and people in all areas of life who need “repairing learning habits to increase personal activity of these people, learn effectively”. The methodological basis of the ApS activity is Study Tech – a learning technology that allows “to achieve success in any area of knowledge and gain the ability to use and apply this knowledge”.
