Reviews
"I love the presentation. I really like the ' Talk Risk and Reward' pieces. I think they not only provoke thought and conversation between peers, but they allow students to process their self-talk and roots to why they do what they do. I like the fact that the textbook photos and icons are up-to-date with the newest technology and trends. I also appreciate the diversity of the students in pictures and highlighted in the cases." --Fatina LaMar-Taylor, Prince George's Community College   "Good topic selection--relevant; easy to read and well researched." --Peg Adams, Northern Kentucky University   "Assessing risks and rewards is integral to forging success; in life, in degree completion, and in related opportunities (for example seeking scholarships, internships, job openings). Feeling comfortable with the risk and reward assessment process is a strong message regarding decision-making, making needed behavioral changes, assessing choices and alternative ways of thinking, and ultimately, 'thinking big' using visioning and dreaming." --Trish Joyce, Broward College   "It is in the process of productive struggle, deliberate practice, and making explicit connections that we can realize that educational risk-taking is the only way to assure that every option for our future remains open to us." --Dede deLaughter, Gainesville State College, "I love the presentation.

    Seller had plenty of photos and well described the floor mats. They shipped the next morning, arrived well packaged (not rolled up or folded) and were clean. Good price, fast shipping, look new. Would 100% buy from this seller again.
