“…Research demonstrates that with humor, students learn better and remember more; and absorb information more quickly and retain it longer (e.g., Bryant & Zillman,1989;Opplinger, 2003;Schmidt, 2002). Furthermore, humor can aid teaching by providing amusement, breaking up content, bringing back attention, lightening the mood, increasing motivation, reducing monotony, and providing a mental break (Neumann, Hood, & Neumann, 2009). Humor increases students' enjoyment of learning, perceptions of how much they learned and positive feelings about the course and instructor (Wanzer & Frymier, 1999).…”
