"Every student is a genius," declares author Thomas Armstrong, and an educator's most important job is to discover and nurture the "genius qualities" that all students were born with but that may no longer be obvious. Urging readers to look beyond traditional understandings of what constitutes genius, Armstrong describes 12 such qualities: curiosity, playfulness, imagination, creativity, wonder, wisdom, inventiveness, vitality, sensitivity, flexibility, humor, and joy. He cites research in various fields that supports this broader understanding of genius and explains how influences in the home, the popular media, and the school itself "shut down" the genius in students.

This course, divided into 5 units is an excellent tool for a conversation based Business course. It helps students at pre-intermediate level to find confidence in speaking freely in business situations. Each unit can be used independently, or the course can be used as a whole.
One shortfall of the course is that if you are teaching a class with a mixture of students, some who have already started working, and some who have not yet entered the job market, it is sometimes difficult to follow the tasks set. A little imagination is required on the part of the teacher!
