T-SHIRTS NOW AVAILABLE! Check them out @: black-box-mind.creator-spring.com Some times we can all be tempted to neaten up our slides. Typically this is a good thing, but there are some things to pay attention to when doing this. One of these things is the spatial contiguity principle.

In this video I'll go into more depth on the spatial contiguity principle and guide you on how to use it to maximum effect in your learning material. Enjoy!
