Product details

"Awakening Genius in the Classroom" by Thomas Armstrong asserts that every child possesses innate genius qualities that educators can nurture through intentional practices. Published in 1998 by ASCD, the book redefines genius beyond IQ to include universal traits stifled by modern schooling, home influences, and media. It equips teachers with strategies to foster these potentials across grade levels.​

Genius Qualities

Armstrong identifies 12 core attributes present in all students: curiosity, playfulness, imagination, creativity, wonder, knowledge, inventiveness, vitality, sensitivity, flexibility, humor, and joy. These qualities drive deep learning when activated, supported by research from psychology and education. Schools often suppress them via rigid testing and competition, but simple shifts like open-ended questions revive them.​

Barriers and Solutions

Home factors like emotional stress or fast-paced lifestyles, alongside school pressures such as standardized assessments, dim these sparks. Armstrong urges educators to start by awakening their own genius, then create "genial climates" with hands-on activities, reflection prompts, and genius experiences. Practical resources include lesson ideas and further reading for sustained implementation.​
