Key Success Factors

Learning tasks that can effectively stimulate the brain and promote neuroplasticity and neurogenesis must meet one or more of the following conditions:

• The performance task should involve one or more senses in a novel context;
• To jump-start the brain, the performance task must be meaningful, unusual, fun, surprising and should emotionally engage learners; and
• The performance task should structure a routine activity in a novel and unexpected way (Katz & Rubin, 1999, p. 34)
