Sometimes tips and ideas for effective communications come from unlikely sources.
I got a first-rate lesson at a local elementary school science fair.
A sixth grader did a memory experiment to see what kinds of words people best remembered. First, people were shown a column of about 20 concrete nouns such as mountain, flower, desk, horse, and the like. Next they were shown a column of conceptual words – honesty, intelligence, etc. People were then asked to recall as many words as they can from each column.
