Caregiving: The SECRETS ARE... (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781478374121)

This is from an appearance on Mission Unstoppable Radio show.My special guest this evening is Dr. Robert Rose, an educator and psychologist whose life long mission has been to improve the quality of education for every student, even the 'tough' ones, and to empower teachers, children and parents to take an active role and responsibility for their outcomes. This is a battle he has waged for over 50 years.Dr. Rose may not have always been popular with the school boards, but he definitely won the respect of his other educators and parents, when his book, JOYS of TEACHING: They Touched My Life, won the READER'S FAVORITE book award for the Best Education Book of 2009. He also wrote: The Complete Teacher, The Creative Teacher, Our Extradordinary Year in Dad's Class, ABUSES of POWER in EDUCATION: Challenging Practically Everything, and Racism 70's Style, each title proof of his own journey to continuously grow as an educator, an individual and an advocate for an education system that he believes clearly isn't designed to produce " Thinkers'! At 80 Dr. Rose is not close to slowing down as he continues to challenge the status quo ( in just about everything he does) through his radio show, his youtube videos and interviews.He wants to share his passion and his legacy-a methodology for teaching he calls "THE SELF-SUSTAINING CLASSROOM." He is a man who clearly walks to his own drumbeat, a leader, teacher who opted to fight a system and do it his way, when they refused to answer his question time and again," Why are We Doing It, THIS Way?He has helped thousands change their lives through his classroom and self help books which also includes such titles as: GETTING TO KNOW YOU: Your Personal Psychologist, and Creating Your Giant Self and he has created a proven model that turns out students who are independent, self-aware, self-confident, self-motivated, and who can totally accept responsibility for their actions.He and his wife, Marie, raised a blended family of seven - five girls, two boys. Hers, two girls and a boy, his, two girls, and then theirs, twins - girl and boy. Two masters and two doctorates have opened some doors, but his eclectic reading and his numerous books helped him think through problems that resulted in his many educational innovations. All this has led to his successful radio show spotlighting Change Agents from every profession and field -www.blogtalkradio.com/icdrrose
