Humor, Visuals, and
Conversation Prompts
Learners absorb material significantly better with images compared to text alone. Visuals improve learning up to 400%.

Learners exposed to humorous material recall information better, even weeks or months later, compared to non-humorous content.

Effective prompts can help learners verbalize their understanding, identify knowledge gaps, and solidify comprehension with peer support.
Each of the 40+ sections contains:
- A story-rich image containing both obvious and implied dangerous or aggressive behaviors
- Thoughtful conversation prompts for individuals to think or write about, or for small groups to explore and discuss
- A funny limerick to help point out the pitfalls of the behavior in that section.


Content included an exploration of angry driving and road rage
- Sections on the root causes of why people exhibit road rage.
- Sections on ways to avoid becoming an angry driver yourself.
Red light! Properly stopped in my lane.
Behind me, Ash is acting insane.
“No right turn,” I obeyed,
Ash’s tantrum displayed,
for road safety is not in his vein!
