Stimulus Learning is stimulated through the five senses Your mind, like your muscles becomes active when the bodily senses are stimulated The learners who come to your classes are no different. Their sensory equipment must be activated before their minds will realize and accept the facts, concepts and skills you wish them to learn. There are few stimuli that will activate all five senses simultaneously. Since you'll have to select among these senses, it will be useful to know that some are much more vital to the learning process than others. When an instructor uses words alone, learners retain some of the facts.
Learners remember more of what they see .
Appeal to several senses simultaneously for the most efficient learning. Vary the stimuli. Repetition of even a strong stimulus becomes monotonous and weakens the desired response. A stimulating presentation requires more preparation, but if a subject is worth remembering, it's worth presenting so it will be remembered. The student must be interested in the learning.
