Miguel Guhlin shared this tasty tidbit: "Did you know that you can train your 'attention filter' (a.k.a. RAS) to prioritize information you focus on?

- After 3-5 minutes, discuss their answers. Asking students to share the first three words they associate with a topic can reveal a lot about what information or misconceptions they are bringing into the learning environment."
