From two internationally recognized experts in the field of gifted education comes this timely exploration of how best to nurture a child¿s unique gifts, and set them on a path to a happily productive life ¿ in school and beyond. What is intelligence? Is it really a have or have not proposition, as we¿ve been led to believe? Are some children just destined to fall behind? Dona Matthews and Joanne Foster answer those questions with a resounding ¿No!¿ In Beyond Intelligence, they demonstrate that every child has the ability to succeed ¿ with the right support and guidance. But how can parents provide that support? Matthews and Foster proceed from the assumption that knowledge is power, offering parents an information-packed guide to identifying a child¿s ability, fostering creativity, and bolstering effort and persistence. Using case studies and anecdotes from their personal and professional experience, they explore different ways of learning; the links between creativity and intelligence; and how to best to provide emotional and social supports. They offer critical advice on how to work co-operatively with schools and educators, and address how to embrace failures as learning opportunities. Drawing on the latest research in brain development and education theory, Beyond Intelligence is a must-read for today¿s parents and educators.
