Discover the Cognitive Journey Behind “Hercules and Me.”

This 40-page illustrated booklet bridges the screenplay’s life story with Dr. Reuven Feuerstein’s theory of Structural Cognitive Modifiability. Each page reveals how moments from Neil’s childhood — torch runs, clay sculptures, and classroom struggles — align with Feuerstein’s cognitive functions such as focusing, planning, perseverance, and self-control.

Purpose of This Booklet

This booklet contrasts the autobiographical screenplay Hercules and Me with Feuerstein’s cognitive functions — showing how each life experience maps directly to a thinking skill. It’s a reflective and educational resource for visitors who want to dive deeper into how the Feuerstein approach shaped the creative journey behind the story.
