Beschreibung

<p>"I remember as a kid in school being told by teachers to think harder and having no idea what to do. This book solves that once and for all. We now have a guide for people of all ages to learn how to think more effectively. I highly recommend this book."<b>--Jack Canfield, cocreator of the <i>New York Times</i> best-selling <i>Chicken Soup for the Soul</i>(R) series and <i>The Success Principles</i></b></p><p>"Think...fail...question...understand...change...learn: in their powerful new book, Burger and Starbird show students, teachers, and everyone else how to harness the genius of learning. <i>The 5 Elements</i> argues that the door to knowledge is not opened by a magical test. Instead, the key is for each of us to boldly embrace a willingness to fail while organizing persistent approaches to thinking. Even more than helping one master content, this book can lead to a satisfying and rewarding life of the mind."<b>--Dennis Van Roekel, president of the National Education Association</b></p><p>"The authors invoke Michael Jordan, Warren Buffett, and Winston Churchill to illustrate practical approaches--including failing--to understanding, creativity, and wisdom. Their observations apply to honing any skill from sports and school to leadership and citizenship. Knowing how to listen and learn has become a rare art--<i>The 5 Elements</i> is a timely tutorial."<b>--Janet Brown, executive director of the Commission on Presidential Debates</b></p><p>"In this compact and remarkable book, two renowned professors share decades of teaching experience with anyone--from students to business people--seeking advice on how to improve skills and expand learning. It should be read, studied, and cherished--then reread."<b>--Fay Vincent, former commissioner of Major League Baseball and former president of Columbia Pictures</b></p><p>"This book is just what American education needs. It guarantees invention and discovery."<b>--Barbara Morgan, former NASA "Teacher in Space" astronaut</b>
