these events were planned to control what the audience saw. Without this direction [url=http://www.odysseyreactshoes.com/nike-hypera
Suggestion The second of our two fundamentals is suggestion. Where direction is often a physical, via gestures, posture Cheap Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 Men's White , and verbal statements, suggestion is the art of implication. Dariel Fitzee Explained suggestion as ?? A subtle but positive act of putting something into the mind of the spectator.?
This definition parallels Giorgi Lozanov's comments about Suggestopedia. Lozanov's defined suggestion as:
?A constant communicative factor which chiefly through paraconscious mental activity can create conditions for tapping the functional reserve capacities.? Lozanov believed that adults bring personal learning barriers into the classroom with them, and that facilitators should create an aura of joyfulness and then use that aura to suggest positive learning outcomes.
In the Hocus Pocus switch example, the magician employed several suggestions: ? The comings and goings of the assistants were not important ? The box was a major focus of the illusion ? Hoods needed to be worn because of the story ? Ropes make escape from the box impossible ? The hooded assistant was the magician ? The switch occurred in an instant ? The magician magically appeared at the back of the theater Each of these suggestions was false Cheap Nike Air More Money Men's British Pound Grey , but was accepted as true by the audience.
In the learning environment, the trainer offers several suggestions that aid learning: ? The subject to be learned is critical to job success or personal or professional well-being ? The time spent together will be well spent ? The subject is not too difficult to learn ? Anyone who applies themselves can learn the material ? The class will be an enjoyable experience
These suggestions can be critical to classroom success. Suggestion calms the anxious right hemisphere, creating positive emotion. The end result is a more attentive brain. Regardless of the field, be it magic Cheap Nike Air More Money "French Euro" Men's Navy , vocal performance, or instruction, the goal and the technique for reaching that goal is the same. Subtle, positive Cheap Nike Zoom Fly Men's Neutral Indigo , focused suggestion that creates an atmosphere of trust.
Acceptance of Manipulation
Finally, we come to the trust required for acceptance of direction and suggestion. For, if the audience believes that the magician or trainer does not have their own benefit at heart, direction and suggestion are doomed to fail. The audience subconsciously condones and willingly accepts the manipulation as long as two factors remain in place: ? The manipulation must be clearly for the audience's benefit ? The audience must not be reminded of the manipulation
The manipulation must be clearly for the audience's benefit
Magicians place great emphasis on communicating benevolence to the audience. They suggest supernatural powers but with their tongues firmly planted in their cheeks. They present their illusions as harmless concoctions for the audiences' enjoyment. And the audience Cheap Nike Zoom Fly Sepia Men's Stone , knowing the intent is pleasurable emotion, allow themselves to be fooled.
Trainers also communicate benevolence. Trainees who mistrust the trainer will not engage in the learning. Trainees allow themselves to be controlled as long as they trust the trainer. The moment they suspect the trainer is more concerned with his or her ego then with their benefit, the level of trust plunges. The instructor must additionally focus the learners on the subject at hand, keep the focus on the subject throughout the learning process Cheap Nike Odyssey React Desert Sand Sail Women's Pink , and create an environment in which the learners amaze themselves with what they have learned. Instruction is manipulation for the learner's benefit.
The audience must not be reminded of the manipulation
A willingness to be manipulated is not the same as a conscious awareness of that manipulation. Audiences and trainees will only accept manipulation if they are not consciously aware of it.
In order to manipulate the audience without calling attention to that manipulation, suggestion must be employed. The audience's reluctance to be tricked, and the learner's reluctance to be coerced, dictates the need for suggestion. Both Fitzee and Lozanov felt that dictates would be doomed to failure. Fitzee stated:
?It is utterly impossible to force the spectator's reason or judgment directly. The spectator must believe he has made his own decision [original emphasis]. This makes it necessary for the magician to use inducement rather than persuasion.?
If you reread that quote with the classroom in mind Cheap Nike React Element 87 , you can easily see the parallel:
?It is utterly impossible to force a class to participate directly. The trainee must believe he has made his own decision to learn. This makes it necessary for the trainer to use inducement rather than persuasion.?
With these comparisons between magicians and trainers in mind, we will next turn our attention to the placement of magic in the learning environment. Next month's article, Hocus Pocus Focus Part 2 will focus on four applications of magic in the learning environment.
