This book is brimming with insights on how to change that. It's an engaging, evidence-based, and practical read about how to develop a generation of lifelong learners.' - Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential and Think Again, and host of the podcast Re:ThinkingA powerful new approach to help your teen move from disengagement to drive.   Adolescents are hardwired to explore and grow, and learning is mainly how they do this. But a shocking majority of teens are disengaged from school, simultaneously bored and overwhelmed. As parents, we can feel powerless and don't know how to help - until now.   Based on five years of research into why children lose their love of learning, award-winning journalist Jenny Anderson and the Brookings Institution's global education expert Rebecca Winthrop have created a transformative model that every parent, carer and educator needs to know about.   Identifying four modes of learning that every student goes through - resister, passenger, achiever and explorer - you'll find out why understanding what these are is crucial to your child's development and how you can coach them to become a curious, resilient and motivated learner.   With stories from children who have used the tools in this book to become life-long learners, and with clear strategies on how to become your child's best cheerleader, this book is essential reading for everyone who wants to help young people thrive.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56304426025333,"sku":"9781785046087","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781785046087.jpg?v=1762795860","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781785046087","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
