How to Make Good Ideas “Stick”: Six Ways to Make Your Writing and Designs More Memorable If you’ve read Malcolm Gladwell’s The Tipping Point, then you probably remember him talking about “stickiness,” the process by which ideas stick in a global consciousness. (And if you haven’t read Gladwell’s book, go read it!) Authors Chip Heath and Dan Heath took the idea a bit further and wrote an entire book on just that idea: Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die. Stickiness is a critical design technique for causing people to remember what you make. If you are an advertiser, marketing professional, small business owner, or just some dude with an important message to share, stickiness is a concept that you’ll want to familiarize yourself with. Authors Lidwell, Holden, and Butler, who wrote the fantastic book Universal Principles of Design, identify six key areas in which you can make your ideas sticky (or, memorable, lodged in your reader-viewers’ minds). #1: SimplicityIdeas that stick are simple. #2: SurprisePeople also remember surprising information.
ImageQuiz Using music to motivate and engage teenage learners: The story of the Jean Monnet Broons Cup Song project In June 2013, during the end-of-year party, a group of girls performed a cover of the Cup Song in front of all the members of our school. They had been inspired by Anna Kendrick in the film Pitch Perfect which started off an internet craze of 'Cup Songs'. These students brilliantly showed how they could manage to play percussion with plastic cups while singing along. We were all quite impressed, to be honest, and I thought I might as well use it in one of my English lessons. A few months later, in November 2013, after I had seen other Cup Song videos on the web, I decided to set up the project but on a larger scale. My idea was to involve each and every student in Year 10 (14-year-olds) in both a linguistic and artistic project, but perhaps more importantly to take part in a great collective adventure, shared by all the students at the same time. The linguistic part of it was central. As a musician myself, I knew how good it felt to sing and to take part in a collective experience.
ISSUU - You Publish AppShed - Build HTML5, iPhone and Android apps online for schools, education and business Self-Publishing and the Decline of Literary Standards By Autumn ThatcherGuest Blog PostAutumn’s Blog A few weeks ago, I sat down for tea with a local musician I was interviewing for the Salt Lake Tribune. Ironically, we began our conversation by discussing writing rather than music. “Did you read that article about that 29-year-old author who is a millionaire now from publishing her own books?” I dropped my tape recorder in shock. My interviewee proceeded to fill me in on Amanda Hocking, a young author who indeed made millions off of self-publishing her novels on Kindle. Why do writers self-publish? I could not admit to my friend that I was secretly pondering the credibility of Amanda Hocking—and any other self-published author for that matter—because I worried that I would sound like a book snob. A once repeatedly rejected writer, Hocking became an internet sensation and a visionary for the do-it-yourselfers around the world. This discovery of Hocking sparked within me both a fascination and a hatred for the powers of the Internet.
