This weeks episode looks at a study conducted by a UC Berkeley professor that measured the effect of positive physical interactions between players on NBA teams. The study found that the more positive interactions that there are the more successful the team was. This should be a lesson for educators as well. The more positive interactions that we have with our students the more engaged they'll be, the more risks they take, and the more they'll feel invested in learning.
