Becoming brilliant: what science tells us about raising successful children - roberta michnick golinkoff

In just a few years, todays children and teens will forge careers that look nothing like those that were available to their parents or grandparents.

While the U.

economy becomes ever more information-driven, our system of education seems stuck on the idea that content is king, neglecting other skills that 21st century citizens sorely need.

Becoming Brilliant offers solutions that parents can implement right now.

Backed by the latest scientific evidence and illustrated with examples of whats being done right in schools today, this book introduces the 6Cs--collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation, and confidence--along with ways parents can nurture their childrens development in each area.
