Jao Tsung-I Academy | A Book Talk over Coffee：Misunderstood Genius - The Truth and Gifts of Dyslexia

Description

They are called 'too slow, too lazy, too inattentive' -- but among them are Einstein, Da Vinci, and Steven Spielberg.
One out of every five people in the world has dyslexia. Their brains process information at a rate of 32 images per second, hundreds or even thousands of times faster than the average person. Yet, from a young age, no one tells them that this is a gift. Instead, they only receive red pen marks and are told, 'You need to work harder.'

In this book talk, we will be discussing two books. This Is Dyslexia reveals that the six cognitive strengths possessed by people with dyslexia are precisely the human abilities that are hardest to replace in the AI era.

The Gift of Dyslexia helps us understand what is going on in the brain of that restless child sitting in the corner of the classroom.

You don't have to have dyslexia to find this book talk worthwhile.

Because this is not just a story about 'learning difficulties'

but a story about how we define intelligence, discover potential, and treat those who don't fit the mold.

This one-hour session is designed for anyone who has ever felt 'not good enough.'
