On Tuesday, Jan 17th, we went over an interesting discussion on the words "Game" and "Test." I found this discussion interesting because I had never realized that both words practically meant the same thing. Both "Test" and "Game" involves rewards, competitions, and the gain or loss of points. Yet, depending on which word that was used, there would be a different emotional response. When hearing the word "test," the class reacted by groaning. When hearing the word "game," the class reacted with more enthusiasm. The teach proceeded on reflecting over the power of words. And just like words, images had the power to do the same just by using color or shapes. The color red was used an example. Red is a color that isn't quiet and attention grabbing. It provokes, it's urgent, it's symbolizes many things. Our stop signs are red to have us "STOP" as it says we should.
