Drawing on his nearly thirty years teaching, developing curricula, and leading conflict-resolution workshops here and around the world, he offers creative, well-tested, and understandable pedagogical ideas to help improve our children’s GIQ: Global Intelligence Quotient. Cognizant of many U.S. schools’ limited budgets and time, Hobert advocates teaching foreign languages early in life, honing students’ conflict-resolution skills, providing creative-service learning opportunities, and offering cultural-exchange possibilities in students’ own communities, as well as nationally and abroad—all before they graduate from high school.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beacon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031021109488,"sku":"9780807032886","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780807032886_p0.jpg?v=1763738466","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780807032886","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
