    "Obvious to you, amazing to others." - 3 Reasons Open Reflection Improves Learning - George Couros

    George Couros shares his thoughts on open reflections! Couros shares why he writes and how blogging and podcasting helps him improve his own learning and thinkig. When we ask for ideas and thoughts, do we act on the thoughts being shared, how do we communicate when we cannot always take action in an timely manner? In this solo episode, Couros openly reflects and considers three ways that open reflection helps him inlcuding opportunities to consider thoughts shared by others, brainwriting, and having the opportunity to be inspired by others’ thoughts! Couros encourages you take your own spin on the thoughts shared in this episode -add something in the comments below are create your own post online. Quotes: "While you read this book, I encourage you to reflect both openly and privately, to dig deeper into the information. I have seen many posts on social media encouraging people to read '100 Books in a Year!' Reading is an essential part of being a learner, but from my perspective, it is better to read fewer books, reflect deeply, and create something with the knowledge that you have accumulated than to speed read and change nothing." - George Couros “When I write blog posts, you'll notice often I'll say, ‘here's A, B and C. What I'm not saying is D, E, and F...’” - George Couros Links: Blog Post, 3 Reasons Open Reflection Improves Learning https://us12.campaign-archive.com/?u=9381017234135a9c6d5f7419a&id=b918c9fb93 Dr. Alec Couros X - https://x.com/courosa __________________________________________ Please share your thoughts with us on Twitter or Instagram at #InnovatorsMindset.

    Epic Book Review! - "Hidden Potential" by Adam Grant on the #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast

    Welcome back to a new episode of EPIC Book Review! In this episode, George Couros shares his reflection of the book, Hidden Potential, by Adam Grant. Couros dives into a series of quotes after sharing a summary of the book that he pulled from ChatGPT. Be sure to watch or listen to this episode to hear some Couros’ insights and thoughts after reading this book by Adam Grant! Quotes: "When you procrastinate, you’re not avoiding effort. You’re avoiding the unpleasant feelings that the activity stirs up. Sooner or later, though, you realize that you’re also avoiding getting where you want to go.” -Adam Grant "... the best way to learn something is to teach it. You remember it better after you recall it—and you understand it better after you explain it. All it takes is embracing the discomfort of putting yourself in the instructor’s seat before you’ve reached mastery. Even just being told you’re going to teach something is enough to boost your learning.” -Adam Grant "...kids tend to absorb foreign languages faster than adults. Yes, they benefit from greater brain plasticity (the developing mind rewires more quickly than the developed one) and less interference from prior knowledge (they’re not entrenched in the grammatical rules of one language). But they’re also largely immune to the fear of embarrassment and the discomfort of making mistakes. Children don’t hold back on communicating—they start babbling as soon as they know some new words. They’re not scared of feeling stupid or being judged.” - Adam Grant "Basic literacy makes it possible to leverage character skills more effectively—to be proactive in learning more and learning faster. Prosperity rises as people become more capable of absorbing new ideas and filtering out old ones.” - Adam Grant "Instead of only looking for geniuses where we expect to find them, we can reach humanity's greatest potential by cultivating the genius in everyone." - Adam Grant Links: Hidden Potential by Adam Grant on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Potential-Science-Achieving-Greater/dp/0593653149/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= The Innovator’s Mindset by George Couros on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Innovators-Mindset-Empower-Learning-Creativity/dp/0986155497 __________________________________________ Please share your thoughts with us on Twitter or Instagram at #InnovatorsMindset.
