Slight of Hand

The video below is one found by Michael Carmel to share with our community. It has to do with perception and worth watching. After watching the video it made me start to wonder if there are things I am doing to distract students from what it is I perceive myself to be teaching them on any given day in any given class. The video also underscores the importance of having someone videotape you when teaching and sit back and watch it to see if the perception you have of the quality of your teaching actually matches the images captured by the camera. It can be most enlightening! I know it was for me so give it a go.
