Example
When teaching a student to identify numbers, the teacher places a larger, brightly colored number “3” alongside smaller, neutral-colored numbers. The larger size and color make the number “3” more noticeable, increasing the likelihood that the student will select the correct number. As the student learns, the teacher gradually decreases the size and brightness of the “3” until all numbers look the same and the student can still correctly identify it.
