About this listen

In just a few years, today's children and teens will forge careers that look nothing like those that were available to their parents or grandparents. While the US economy becomes ever more information-driven, our system of education seems stuck on the idea that "content is king", neglecting other skills that 21st century citizens sorely need.

Becoming Brilliant offers solutions that parents can implement right now. Backed by the latest scientific evidence, this book introduces the "6Cs": collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation, and confidence, along with ways parents can nurture their children's development in each area.

Good points but hard to get through & patronising

The book provides some good points about how to encourage children to develop but it can be quite hard to pick them out from amongst all the superfluous (and made up?) details. They hammer on about there being too much focus on content, and yet they reference hundreds of children's names for no reason other than to lend some sort of additional credibility to whatever point they're making at the time.
