Cogmed Working
Memory TrainingTM is an innovative
home-based computer program developed by
researchers at Karolinska Institute in Sweden to
improve working memory capacity. Working memory
is an essential element for remembering and
following instructions, sustaining attention,
and organizing activities.
In children, signs of working memory deficits
show up in school and at home as an inability to
maintain focused attention, difficulty
remembering multi-step instructions, planning
and organizing and starting and completing
tasks. Working memory deficits directly impacts
reading comprehension and math reasoning
abilities.
Cogmed Working Memory Training’s software,
RoboMemo® has been specifically designed to
improve working memory and attention in children
and adults. Through active and engaging
exercises the participant is guided through the
training by being challenged at his or her
individual level.
Cogmed Working Memory Training™ is easy to
complete. A Personal Coach walks you through the
computer installation and provides weekly
feedback calls for encouragement and helpful
tips. The training session is only 40 minutes
long and is done 5 days a week for 5 weeks. The
entire training is conducted in the convenience
of your own home. A wrap-up session and a
6-month follow-up complete the training program.
