Every second, our brains are learning far more than we realize. Right now you are learning the flickering of the lights, the sound of the air conditioning fan, the sounds and images of everything around you. More than likely, your brain automatically removes or pares down all of these extraneous data and leaves just my voice.

For people with exceptionalities, this paring of unimportant information is not automatic. On a neurological level, the brains of people with autism are larger than the typical person, making it possible for them to learn and store tremendous amounts of information, but much less capable of using that information. Discrete video modeling does the paring of information for the student. It presents ONLY the specific piece of information that we want to convey.
