Teambuilders for Remote Teams
Educators have long known that opening and closing activities enhance learning. Asking a class to solve a puzzle or maze as a warm up activity uses the brain pathways for problem-solving, making learners more receptive to a problem-solving lesson. Meeting facilitators know that closing a gathering on a high note facilitates memory encoding of the high points of the experience.
