Produktbeschreibung
This book presents a three year comparison of the hope, grit, happiness and life satisfaction in traditional and alternative high school students. C. R. Snyder's research on hope celebrated the idea that students with high hope have a rainbow in their minds. These rainbows enable high hope students to live out their dreams and overcome obstacles that might deter others. This research quantitatively documents the assertation students in alternative schools are haunted by low hope and subsequently low grit perseverance. The author suggests that low hope for these students assumes the form of a storm cloud in their minds. These storm clouds often paralyze alternative school students and render them unable to overcome challenges that they face in every day life.
