Something completely new! A fully interactive drag and drop activity for your students to show their knowledge and understanding of the frustration-aggression hypothesis.

How to use this resource:

Heard of ‘desirable difficulties’? This is a great concept I came across in Peter Brown’s excellent book ‘Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning’, where, as teachers, we need to create difficult scenarios in which students have to wrestle with content to grasp its meaning, rather than simply be told it. In essence, we need to get them to ‘work it out’ for themselves.

By working hard to make meaning of new material students are much more inclined to remember and understand the concepts involved. And can then apply them correctly.

In this case, the desirable difficulty is the challenge for students to successfully drag and drop each component of the hypothesis into the correct container. They have unlimited attempts and on pressing submit they will receive feedback as to whether they have been successful or not.

It’s a great way to introduce this hypothesis and as well as can being used on individual devices, it can be projected on your board and used as a whole class activity.

It can also be used to review learning and as a revision tool.
