This webinar discusses the process of memory; a concept all teachers should understand for an efficient and effective classroom. There will be a particular focus on student attention and its indispensable place in memory processing. Attention is a limited resource. If we choose to attend to one particular stimuli, we are consequently blind to other stimuli in our environment. It is crucial teachers understand this and design their classroom and instruction with this in mind. This webinar will also take a look at research surrounding how attentive and inattentive behaviors in the classroom spread, called attention contagion.

 

There is much to consider when designing a classroom environment and instruction. Often, there is an emphasis on aspects other than memory and attention. This webinar argues we should begin with this in mind to create a learning environment that is the most conducive to learning.
