FutureLoop: Life in Fast Forward "Message to Mentors"

Note to Teachers, Parents, Tutors and Others That Have a Learner They Care About

"FutureLoop Fulfilling Potential: Life in Fast Forward" is a story that follows episodes in the life of a boy named Caleb. Caleb is a student who initially struggles with learning. Through a series of remarkable events, he gets his life on track and becomes very successful. The material that helps him is a video and text program entitled Clever Quick. This is a program that provides access to ‘management of learning’ strategies intended mainly for students in Intermediate through Junior High grade levels. There is a separate program, entitled Clever Quotient, which is intended for students in upper high school levels through all adult ages, that builds on the learning foundation provided here. Because this Clever Quick program provides the foundation for the learning of these skills, "FutureLoop Fulfilling Potential: Life in Fast Forward" can also be used by young adults, or people of any age, as an introduction to the concepts. It provides a first step, useful to develop basic understanding prior to embarking on the senior high/adult version.

QR codes and URL links provided at the end of each chapter direct the reader to specially embedded pages on the website “FutureLooping.com”, where specific and relevant resource materials, along with videos and audio files, can be accessed. Audio files are provided for the reader’s convenience and to enhance comprehension. The chapters can be read, listened to, or both! There is also a video provided at the conclusion of each chapter. Tips and strategies for managing personal learning are provided. At the conclusion of Chapter 1 readers and mentors are directed to Video A1, which is an overall introduction to the entire program and is intended for learners as well as teachers, parents, and other caregivers. Text information for each of the Clever Quick sections, survey forms and other supplementary resources are included via the links at the end of corresponding chapters. “Fast track” and other pacing options are also included via the link found at the end of Chapter 1. Thank you for investing your time and energy in the upcoming generations and the future leaders of our planet.

Please note that there are two versions of the novel "FutureLoop Fulfilling Potential: Life in Fast Forward" available. The Learner's Edition is a more streamlined, easy to use version that has links to all necessary information, but does not have the supplementary material included right in the resource. The Mentor's Edition has links to the resources as well as having them printed as appendices, included within the resource. This is ideal for teachers, parents, tutors and others who are helping a learner with the material. Everything required to assist is close at hand. Ideally, each learner will have their own copy of the resource, either in e-book or paperback format. The novel resource is well suited as an individual, small group or whole class, teacher directed or independent program. Success has also been achieved using this program as a classroom teacher directed, read-a-loud program. In addition, the novel has proved very effective in independent home learning situations.

By the way, when you purchase your copy of "FutureLoop Fulfilling Potential: Life in Fast Forward" from Amazon, be assured that all proceeds support local food security and/or mental health charities for children and youth! Thanks for your contribution!
