The Afterword on Using Performance-led Story Telling in Teaching and Learning

How emotion and drama connect learning and memory?

Engagement is strongest when we connect emotion to story!

Sparking interest and encouraging others through performance enhances the power to retain information. Why do we remember the details of story or content when we are engaged? How can we better insure that our audiences will retain the key elements of a presentation?

Two expert guests join Amy and Holland at the table this week to answer these questions and present vital resources to help everyone add a bit of drama to their day! Timmy Bauer is a writer, illustrator, puppeteer, and actor. Cassie Johansen is a loud, creative teacher who’s trying to save the world one kid at a time. Together, they explain how we can motivate and inspire learning through performance.
