According to a recent article published in the We Are Teachers Blog, there are 5 research proven reasons why having fun aids student learning:
1. Positive emotional connections create a higher level of attentiveness.
2. Studies indicate that stress can shrink the hippocampus, which leads to memory loss. A stress-reduced learning environment leads to greater student retention of the material.

I have been an instructor for 4 years now. I came into this profession as a clinical specialist in physical therapy with 16 years of knowledge and wisdom that I have accumulated through treatment of many patients during this time. I thought it would be easy to stand up in front of a class and teach them what it is that I have learned about physical therapy. Afterall, I had worked in virtually every treatment setting and have treated most every type of patient and had exposure to many of the common diagnoses typically seen by physical therapists.
