“Prior exposure to content (the Priming effect) or even a simple presentation of questions leads to quicker

responses. Learning and recall also increase when a pattern is provided prior to exposing learners to a lesson.”

Emotions give us a more activated and chemically stimulated brain.

Eric Jenson (2008)

The Role of Emotions in Learning

Emotions are so important that they have their own memory pathways. Hence, it is common for Ss to remember most events like a field trip or a hands-on activity far longer than they would a mere lecture. Larry Squire (1987, 1992)
