Transforming Students into Leaders through the Literary Arts and the Social Sciences

This book offers college professors and college students, as well as the general reader, a variety of ideas for developing techniques for creative and critical thinking and strategic writing and reading skills. Additionally, some of the contributions here present strategies to help students cultivate effective interpersonal skills, and foster a greater understanding of cultural diversity and skills for collaboration in a culturally inclusive workplace. Along with this, the book also utilizes technology in innovative ways across the curriculum. In teaching language courses, literature courses, psychology courses, or education courses, each contributor cultivates, through teaching and mentoring, the transformation of a student into a 21st century leader.
