I am writing this post on the day that the 5,000 to 1 longshot Leicester City Foxes football (in the U.S. “Soccer”) team clinched the 2016 Premier League Championship title. Since this is arguably the biggest underdog victory in the history of sports , it seems like a good time to investigate how we respond to underdogs. We need to delve into psychology as well as neuroscience to understand this phenomenon, and what it might mean to the learning professional.

I’m sure you’ve heard this before: Hear a piece of information, and three days later you’ll remember 10% of it. Add a picture and you’ll remember 65%. This is because our brain processes everything, including text, as pictures therefore reading a word is going to take longer and be laborious compared with processing an icon or image.
