After I read “Learning more about how our brains work!” by Leland, I am surprised video games can make our brain for learning. Sometimes, I admire people who play games well. They can gives tips on tactics and negotiation strategies I have played league of legends for several years. However, my skills is still there, did not improve a lot.
Back to the Ted talk the author shared, Dr. Bavelier used the gesture to attract audience’s attention. When I took ESL course, the instructor ask us to use some gesture, walk around and eye contact to audiences. If we want to gesture, go ahead and gesture. We need to avoid minor hand movements that will be masked by the lectern.
Leland understands multimedia learning principles Dr. Bavelier has used. The author inserted YouTube video which will make audience to watch it. The author used Voice Principle and Modality Principle in the blog.
I wonder if the author could add some own experience that would be great.
