Super Mario Effect - Student Answers


You have to focus really hard on something to accomplish it. If you don’t succeed the first time, try again. You cannot focus on how you can fail.
-Caleb P.

“We can treat life’s challenges and tasks like video games to trick our brains into learning more, making learning more fun”
-Cody B.

The Mario effect is about thinking how you think. You also need to focus on the end goal. 
-Jacob B.

The most important point of the Super Mario effect is that we continue to try because we know success is inevitable.  As a team we can share our experiences and learn how to better navigate the course. The Super Mario effect shows is how to be better students knowing the more we play the better we get.

The Super Mario Effect tricks our minds into thinking more and learning more. It makes you think about the end goal and not how you failed. It makes you want to keep on trying. You can use the super Mario effect to change how you learn by making it seem fun and tricking the mind to think that it is a cooler way to learn. It makes you learn as a team because you use each other's minds and not just yours to reach the end goal. If there was no end goal, you won't be motivated. For example, if you are taking a quiz, and the teacher says try to be first, and there is nothing that the teacher is going to give you, you are not going to be motivated to try to be first. We use the super Mario effect to be a better student because we have more fun learning things and learn more. The Super Mario Effect is a really cool way to learn for kids AND adults.
