Engaging students
• “hooks” are a way of engaging students, generating excitement, and enriching understanding
• Are their topics that you have difficulty bringing alive?
• Do students ever switch off in class?

Facilitating learning
• Learning is difficult
• Teachers can remove “Barriers to Learning”• Fear of Failure• Anxiety• Boredom
• You can teach without removing these but they won’t learn unless you do

Brain Functioning (or the lack of it!)
Controlled processing
Automatic processing
![Page 9: Past Powerpoint Engaging Students in Operations](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062302/568165c1550346895dd8c6e5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Tradeoffs : Efficient storage and efficient recall
Controlled ProcessingAutomatic Processing
Examples: 1) Conference introductions 2) Finding green beans
Efficient input, inefficient recallInput is “automatic” so recall is difficult
Inefficient input, efficient recallInput is “controlled” so recall is easier

Controlled processing
• Desired state for effective learning
• More powerful but less common
• Triggered by things that are– Different– Problematic– Effortful
• Implications?– Interrupts the students’ “learning script”– Changes how something is stored in memory
