Abstract
- For all children, the learning process has highs and lows, but for individuals who have suffered from a traumatic brain injury (TBI), the return to the classroom can mean that even subjects that were once easily understood and quickly learned can be difficult to comprehend and retain. New information has surfaced on how memory can be improved by using curriculum enhanced with the link between visual imagery (film) and emotion, to help these students rebuild their educational strategies and their lives. This article discusses perspectives at the intersection of memory, learning, artistic media, and emotion, and relates a narrative of a successful use of film to engage students with TBIs.
