  •  “Capturing and focusing the learner’s attention increases the potential of learning,” (Seli, 2016). 
    1. The activity uses novelty, visualization of an abstract concept, and active participation to capture and focus the learners’ attention. There is novelty in the use of a visual gel that will capture their attention. 
  •  “Learning and motivation are enhanced if the learner values the task,” (Seli, 2016). 
    1. The Glo-Germ gel allows learners to visualize germs on their hands, so that they can understand the value of the learning experience. The visualization of the germs will help the learner to understand the necessity of hand washing in their everyday life. This activity is done in the very beginning so that the learner desires to gain and acquire the knowledge and skills being taught.

  • The Glo Germ activity captures the learner’s attention and draws them into the learning activity by playing into their increased curiosity. 
  • It also addressed the learner’s need for concrete operations. It takes an abstract concept (germs) and demonstrates how germs exist and interact in a real way for the learner. The visualization of the germs creates a real, concrete object that the learner can easily comprehend.
  •  It also is appropriate for their new level of rational thinking, in that they must comprehend the causal relationship between germs and hand washing.

  • For the older adults, this activity is intended to capture their attention and demonstrate value. 
  • While in many older take longer to retrieve semantic memories (Santrock, 2016, p. 379), this learning experience is designed with many opportunities for reinforcement and repetition.
  • It also for peer interaction and development of a sense of community among the learners.

  • This activity allows learners to develop self-regulation skills, critical thinking skills, and working memory.
  • The children must sit quietly for a short amount of time, which centers around their ability to self-regulate. 
  • They then mentally create relationships between the information in the story and apply the information outside the story, which centers around their newly developing critical thinking and developing executive function.
  •  It also scaffolds a small amount of information to slowly build upon their working memory, while decreasing external stimuli by having children focus only on the story.

    • In this activity the children are able to use their autonomy by placing the cards in order independently.

  •  This activity is designed to allow the adults to reinforce and apply the new concepts in an easy and low pressure environment.

  • This activity was designed with the idea that children have entered the concrete operational stage of development, and are capable of ordering and seriating. This allows them to further practice and develop this type of thinking while continuing to review and transfer the new knowledge regarding hand hygiene. 
  • It also takes into account the child’s desire for autonomy and independence. While the learner may ask for help, it is entirely possible for the child to complete the activity alone allowing for independence and self-regulation.

  • “Learning and motivation are enhanced if the learner values the task” 
    1. Discussing what they have learned and how to apply the concepts will further enforce the value of the learning task, especially in hearing and sharing different perspectives in a group setting. 
  • “Learning and motivation are enhanced when learners are given the opportunity to apply what they have learned in varying contexts,” (Seli, 2016). 
    1. In this activity, the adults have the opportunity to discuss how they plan to apply this knowledge in their own contexts. This will allow them to think about potential barriers and challenges and use the support and innovation of the group setting to attempt to address those issues. The purpose is to simulate applying the new knowledge outside the classroom, so that the learner will be better prepared to transfer the knowledge to a real life setting after the learning experience.
