Just for Fun

FUN can play a key role in learning. Research suggests that “active enjoyment” can enhance memory as well as having a strong positive impact on motivation (Lucardie, 2014; Tews, Michel & Noe, 2017; Mansour & El-Said, 2009). Whenever you introduce a new concept, discuss essential information, or review a key assignment, you might want to ask yourself, “What can I do to make this more fun?”

With that in mind, this section contains material not only designed to make you smile, but also to hopefully make you think a little deeper.  ENJOY!

Feel free to send your favorite educator humor for inclusion in this section.
