Think Like a Genius version 2.0 software

As a middle school teacher, I have struggled over the years with how to best prepare my students for jobs that dont even exist yet. Learning information is not enough. It is knowing what to do with new information that matters. I discovered Think Like a Genius ten years ago. My students have been making hands-on material models to show their unique way of connecting new information with their own interests. Other students are amazed at the differences between each model, yet they all cover the same content. This personal approach excites and motivates kids with a range of abilities, from concrete to abstract. I am thrilled that a three dimensional software is now available!!! These endless, creative avenues to show understanding inspire me, as well as, students.

Think Like a Genius is an amazing cross between a video game and a tool for emotional growth and expression. The kids see it and use it like a game, all the while refining, defining, and opening their minds! Just playing with the models helped my kids express themselves better, more clearly...they now dont struggle with understanding their feelings - this game showed them how to see a situation from multiple dimensions, which allowed them to find solutions!! My kids are now more sociable and engaging, and have learned how to understand others feelings as well. Making them a better friend, and to having more friends!

Indeed this software has amazing applications for opening up the world of a childs mind to infinite creativity, expression and ultimately a parents ability to understand them on a deeper level. All good. But what I discovered in teaching it to my son (actually he ended up showing me a thing or two) was that it had applications for my marriage as well. I guess this shouldnt be such a surprise as its obvious that anyone can use it (it is happily very user friendly) but still I asked my husband to model his vision about a particularly challenging issue we were facing and I did the same and sure enough, by walking one another through the models we were able to fully see and ultimately understand one anothers viewpoints. It was like creative therapy (only much less expensive!) I would recommend this product to anyone wishing to work through relationship issues of any shape or size.

Though not quite a luddite Im not extremely comfortable with some of the newer software and how to get around. The companion website and video tutorials are great. It took me about 15 minutes to master the programs interface and become able to produce worlds and models that are as detailed as I can imagine.

This software is fun. I took a look at the imaginary worlds that other people had created, filled with symbols, metaphors, and meaning. That tickled my own creative instincts... and I was off! The opposite of a bulleted list, a Think Like a Genius world expresses subtleties, connections, and feelings as well as thoughts. What a great idea!

Think like a Genius is a tool to express ideas in three dimensions. This software helps me visualize my thinking as well as others who use the software. I competed a project in school using this software to explain my thought process. The class immediately came to life when I stared Think like a Genius and watched my presentation with open eyes. The teacher was so impressed that she gave me an A+. From now on if I find a opportunity to use Think Like A Genius, I will add it in and expect a higher grade. The software is easy to use and is fun.

The TLG software is a ground-breaking program that fosters the genius in children without them suspecting they are actually learning something. As they progress in this fun, challenging and interactive game, they improve their communication, problem-solving and analytical skills. My 12-year old son has become vastly more communicative and engaging, and able to articulate his thoughts and feelings much more clearly since he began using TLG. I would highly recommend this software to anyone who seeks a developmental tool for their child that has the power and boundless potential to compete with todays video game culture.

This is the best software that I have ever seen to teach anybody from age 5 to whatever, creativity. If you want to improve your creative ability in any area, this is the software to open up your mind to alternatives.

My 10 year old daughter uses TLG software to create new worlds and express ideas. When she is using it, I feel like it is time well-spent. She has aha moments and never fails to be excited by what comes out.I am going to use it as a way to stay connected with her -- how much fun!

This software is a wonderful new tool that can help learners of all ages to access, strengthen and build on (and with!) their own innate creative capacities. Think Like a Genius 2.0 is easy-to-use, and the fluid way it integrates abstract visual elements taps into a universal symbolic language -- the global language of creativity. The result is a richly evocative digital environment that stimulates new ways to see the world, fosters individual imaginative expression, and opens up new pathways to collaboration and the socialization of ideas.
