Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to change and modify neuron activity and connections in reaction to increased learning demand. Cognitive skills, such as sensory processing, memory, reasoning, and attention, are capable of improving with adequate and continued training. Brain function increases, students are able to recall more accurately, process faster, and therefore, learning is easier.
Neurocognitive programs work on neuroplasticity, students are given an array of exercises to promote rapid strengthening and growth of these neuronal connections.
The key is to pin point each individual student’s strengths, needs, and area of deficit. Based on these assessments an individualized plan is created to facilitate student’s success. Ongoing progress monitoring provides feedback and drives instruction.
