YOUR EXPERIENCE
1. There are clear goals every step of the way.
2. There is immediate feedback on one’s actions.
3. There is a balance between challenges and skills.
4. Attention is focused on one’s actions.
5. Distractions are excluded from consciousness.
6. There is no worry of failure.
7. Self-consciousness disappears.
8. The sense of time becomes distorted.
9. The activity becomes satisfying in its own right.

MANAGING FLOW
METHODOLOGY
observation• it is difficult to see when groups initially go into flow, but easy to
see when they come out• easy to see when they re-engage in flow
intervention• action research• at first sporadic, later focused
evaluation• was it effective in re-engaging?• how effective?

PROBLEMS THAT MANAGE FLOW
SELF-COMPLEXIFY:• very few• I have found only one (card sort)
EASY TO COMPLEXIFY:• Skyscrapers• ThinkFun Games
DIFFICULT TO COMPLEXIFY• any curricular problems

OCCASIONING FLOW
OCCASIONING FLOW ≠ MANAGING FLOW
• occasioning flow in the context of curriculum is ALMOST NOT possible until student start to self-manage flow
• until then you need to use problems that are inherently engaging AND either self-complexify or are easy to complexify
