| The CogniFit for Education platform is a neurocognitive assessment and brain training program designed to help educators and teachers assess and track student's cognitive progress through fun brain games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhlXnaUbntg |
The CogniFit for Education
platform starts with students completing a scientifically validated and
gamified cognitive assessment. These brain games
are specifically designed to identify the students' cognitive strengths
and deficits in skills relevant for learning such as attention, memory,
concentration, perception, and reasoning. Using this initial
information, the CogniFit program automatically builds a personalized
brain training regimen specifically for each student's cognitive needs
and help improve their learning abilities.
CogniFit CEO Tommy Sagroun explains, "Every student is different and has unique cognitive
strengths and weaknesses. However, the mainstream education system
groups students based on their age, rather than cognitive abilities like
attention and memory, making it difficult to always ensure that the
entire classroom is learning at the same pace. By providing educators
with this new CogniFit for Education platform, teachers have the
opportunity to assess, train and track their students' cognitive skills,
and adapt their teaching strategy accordingly for each individual
student. This makes a massive difference in the learning results at the
end of the calendar year."
CogniFit has been working with schools and education centers around the world to develop this new solution and make sure its answers to the most pressing needs of educators. The aim is for this brain based learning platform to provide teachers with relevant information on a weekly basis in order to provide them with a tool for better learning experience. Teachers receive automatically a detailed report of their students' cognitive abilities after completing the initial assessment and the different regimen and exercises available online. The initial feedback on the platform also helps the teachers better adapt their teaching strategies during the year instead of waiting for test results to see the effectiveness of their education. This information also helps the teacher understand where each student may need extra help and personalize and humanize the relation with each student on a deeper level. For example, a student with a low inhibition or focus may have a harder time paying attention in class, or a student with low scores processing speed may need an extra minute to understand the written instructions on a test. By being aware of it, a teacher will use this information and improve the results.
