“If working memory is impaired, we
can’t stay on task or work toward a long-term goal because we
can’t keep an idea in mind long enough to operate on it or to
ponder, process, sequence, plan, rehearse and evaluate consequences
[…] A failure of working memory is also why people with ADHD
are terrible at keeping track of time [… they] literally
forget to worry about the passing time, so they never get started on
the tasks at hand.”

When You Can Do Something to
Help Them Succeed NOW!
Dear Friend,
I am
Dr. John Kelley, “The Brain Doc”, and I have
exciting news for you. I’m pleased to announce the immediate
availability of a groundbreaking program, Cogmed Working Memory
Training that intensively exercises
and expands the ability to maintain multiple bits of information in
mind for brief periods of time. Working memory is vital for maintaining
focus, planning a sequence of steps or tasks, integrating fragments of
information into a coherent thought or concept, controlling impulses
and exercising acceptable social etiquette; all crucial to HIGH
ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE.
What’s
more, this entire program takes
place
in the comfort and familiarity of your own home—no
need for your child to dread being dragged somewhere else. No need to
worry about scheduling sessions in your busy lives, or paying hefty
fees for missing an appointment. You simply load the program onto your
home computer, and work through the exercises five times a week for
five weeks. Over 80% of the students who take Cogmed Working Memory
Training improve their concentration, impulse control, success in reading and math,
ability to plan and follow directions, as well as self-confidence and
flexibility.
Cogmed
isn’t just another computer game. Its intensive thirteen
multi-step tasks are specifically designed to build working memory from
different vantage points, and its comprehensive scope is unmatched by
any other program. To ensure your success, you work through the program
under the careful guidance of a coach who (1) helps you devise an
effective incentive program to maintain high motivation during
training, (2) monitors every step of your child’s progress
through a secure internet data connection, and (3) contacts you by
phone each week to provide support and feedback as your child learns.
