Spice Up Your Presentations With Magic!
9 May 2000
Format:Paperback
What a great idea to include relatively easy magic tricks in presentations and training sessions! Although some of the "magic tricks" are redundant, the overall idea is great. Each trick includes a description, materials required and step-by-step instructions. Whether a seasoned or new presenter or trainer, this book is likely to have something useful to spice up your presentations.
Tapping Magic to Engage Learners
30 July 2009
Format:Paperback
Ed Rose has created a wonderful resource for trainers, educators and speakers. His easy to perform magic tricks tie into what brain researchers have found related to stimulating the brains of learners - use novelty and allow them to have fun and the chance for enhanced learning increases.
Thumbs up to Ed for making a seeminging mysterious process and technique available to the average trainer, speaker and educator. There are many other wonderful books that also provide creative strategies similar to the ones in this book. The Creative Training Idea Book; Creative Learning: Activities and Games That REALLY Engage People (Essential Tools Resource)

Great for Teachers and Speakers
21 Jun 2009
Format:Paperback
I have been a professional teacher/trainer of technical materials for more than 30 years and have always used magic in my teaching. I know magic grips the attention of students like almost nothing else!
Ed Rose has put together an easy to understand book that teaches magic and, more importantly, how to use magic to illustrate the content you are trying to teach.
The magic he teaches is simple and easy to perform even if you have no experience with magic. If you are a competent amateur or professional magician, the magic is not new or impressive. But, do not pass this book by for that reason.
The real benefit of this book is how Ed uses magic to teach Human Resources topics. Any teacher who reads this book, and applies the general principles that Ed demonstrates to their subject matter will have a much more dynamic and engaging classroom presentation!
