This presentation was given to inspire teachers to think with a design brain and a heart for the difference that a well thought through student experience can make. A little effort goes a long way.

to school education?

8. MAYER EVALUATES...
• “I attribute the disappointing results of various technology’s
attempt to tap the potential of visual and worldwide learning
to the technology-centred approach taken by the
promoters. Instead of adapting technology to fit the
needs of human learners, humans were forced to adapt
to the demands of cutting-edge technologies.”
Richard E. Mayer.
• Focus has unfortunately been on access rather than on
helping people (plan, learn, communicate) through the aid
of technology
