Toward a Sensory Education: Sensation as Metaphor.
Owen, William Foster
Education, v105 n1 p79-81 Fall 1984
Sensory metaphors--based on visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory, or gustatory sensation--are pervasive in everyday communication. Teachers can improve communication with students by learning to recognize sensory metaphors, matching their own sensory language with that of their students, maximizing sensory channels, and teaching sensation and its relation to experience.
