<p>Our brain is on 'absorb' for about 20 minutes...then you are&nbsp;courting&nbsp; eye glaze over&nbsp;and phase out mode. So you need to do an activity that can be as simple as a turn around and tell your partner a comment or two to prevent that loss of momentum.&nbsp;Hopefully some laughter might result and then you have an energized class. The linear students need a list recap sometimes. As a right brain instructor, I need to give them a concrete map to my often holistic narratives.</p>
