Mihalyi Csikszenmihalyi, a Hungarian-American psychologist, has studied a state he calls 'flow', where people are completely engaged and delighted in a process of problem-solving, and our normal sense of time is suspended. Here is a link to his TED talk on this topic from 2004.
Professor Peter Liljedahl from SFU Math Education has taken up the idea of 'flow' in both a descriptive and prescriptive way for our math classrooms. Here are his slides shared from his Saturday session at the Northwest Math Teachers' Conference from October.
