Resource summary

Page 1

Your brain creates shortcuts to make sense of everything you see. It uses memories of past experiences to make guesses about what you're looking at. When using color and/or shape, you can influence the way people read things. Also, looking at an illusion is an interesting way to trick people. When you look at the image on the next page, what do you see?

The visual you used for it is very interesting

Upon seeing the image as a smaller thumbnail, my brain instantly connected "skull", but when I magnified the page to see the image fully it then became apparent to me what the picture really was! It's very true that the brain takes shortcuts, because it has to take in an absolute torrent of information all at once. So it's easier to make a quick assumption than to stop and really look twice at what your eyes are feeding your brain.

Celi and Jacob, it's blank because it created another box on its own that I didn't put information in.

I'm guessing that like myself, you were having difficulty figuring out how to create these resources. Good information though, that is straight to the point. Visual references would help to understand the resource more.

I would also like to see this information presented in a more creative way. Since this point is about how we remembering things, it would be great to have a visual that reinforces the message. I'm also not sure why there is a second blank slide.

Second box is blank. Not that creative.
