About the Author:

Malka Margalit, Ph.D., was the Head of the Jaime and Joan Constantiner School of Education, Tel-Aviv University. She received her Ph.D. from London University and was nominated full professor in 1994. She has published her research in 4 books, 110 articles in international peer-reviewed journals, and several chapters in professional books. Professor Margalit is the Vice President for International Development of the IARLD (International Academy of Research in Learning Disabilities), is on the coordinating board of the International Society for Research in Early Intervention, and was Chairperson of the Israeli Council of Psychologists, Director of the Sneurson Psycho-Educational Center and representative of the Israeli Psychologists' organizations in the National Health Committee of the Israeli Ministry of Health. She was also the chairperson of the Shalem Foundation research Committee, Chairperson of the Committee on Disability and Rehabilitation in the International Council of Psychologists, and the Vice Chairperson of the International Association of Special Education. She received the Enoch Award for Scientific Contribution to Special Education and has frequently been invited as an international evaluator to present her research in international conferences around the world. Professor Margalit is a certificated senior educational and rehabilitational psychologist. She is a member of several international professional organizations, and on the editorial boards of several scientific journals, including the Journal of Learning Disabilities, European Journal of Special Needs Education, and Exceptional Children.

Professor Margalit was nominated by the Minister of Science and the Minister of Education to chair the national committee that examined the needs of students with learning disabilities in Israel (Margalit Committee). The report's conclusions were presented in 1997, and are currently being implemented throughout the Israeli educational system. She also chaired the national committee to evaluate the implementation of the Special Education Law (Margalit Committee II). In her research, through her books, chapters and research articles, Professor Margalit examines in depth children's loneliness and the impact of emotions and motivation on learning and adaptive development. She is employing empowering models such as Hope Theory to promote growth and adjustment instead of the traditional focus on the causes for dysfunction. She is conducting research on the contributions of friends (including Internet support and virtual friends), schools and families to the adjustment of children with special needs versus typical development. Her studies examine methods for promoting effective coping, enhancing personal strength and reframing difficulties into challenges including the use of technology to enhance empowerment processes.
