In this era of higher standards, it has never been more important to provide educational support for teachers. Through the activities of this new and unique book, educators build the MegaSkills they need to nurture their own learning abilities to be able to build the learning capacities of children.
The MegaSkills are: Confidence, Motivation, Effort, Responsibility, Initiative, Perseverance, Caring, Teamwork, Common Sense, Problem Solving and Focus. This book is created by Dorothy Rich Associates in cooperation with Phi Delta Kappa. It provides exercises to build teacher abilities to:
Know Their Leadership Strengths, Learn About Their Own Learning, Recognize MegaSkills in Daily Life, Use MegaSkills to Solve Problems, Keep Track of Leadership Abilities.
"In these days when every teacher is on
the front lines, not only teaching but competing
for students and building partnerships with families.
Dr. Rich's practical and easy to use strategies
are more needed than ever. This is a unique and
important book for all educators."

who teach them. Dorothy Rich provides the enabling
programs to help every teacher become a stronger
teacher and stronger learner."
