Thank you for recommending the Human Factors...Rob,<br /><br />Thank you for recommending the Human Factors topic.<br /><br />Don Norman's <b>Psychology of Everyday Things</b> (also titled <b>The Design of Everyday Things</b>) would be an interesting reading assignment. Book can be read in a few hours. <br /><br />Also, thank you for mentioning me. If I can be of help to teachers I'd be pleased to speak on the phone and/or bring one of my programs such as <b>Games to Explain Human Factors: Come, Participate, Learn & Have Fun!!!</b> or <b>Using Psychology Games and Activities of Yesteryear to Prepare For Our Future</b> to their classroom. <br /><br />RonRonald G.
