Is your child's memory faulty?

As many as 10 percent of school age children may suffer from poor working memory, yet the problem remains rarely identified.

"Some psychologists consider working memory to be the new IQ because we find that working memory is the single most important predictor of learning,"


Defects in working memory may explain why one child cannot read his history book and another gets lost in her algebra, new research suggests.

It is important to identify the problem early so memory training can be implemented.

The child should not be considered dull witted or lazy.

Children can be taught ways to function better in school.

There are programs being devised to help these children.

That is quite interesting. It doesn't really surprise me that memory is so important to learning. I have always been blessed with an exceptional memory and as a result always found school quite easy.

Hi to all, Defect in working memory is a big issues my friends. I request never neglect on this matter. In this competitive world we need to empower or sharp our brain & our children brain also. I would like to share my personal experience with software known as Mind Sparke Brain Fitness Pro. I take training on this software for keeping my brain healthy and active. The software is designed in such manner that when you take training on it stimulates all the parts of the brain and makes you use all your senses at the same time. We need to remember images shown on the screen listen to the alphabets and press the keys on keyboard at the same time. The software also prepares a graph of your performance using which u can judge your progress.

I think such software and programs are really useful for keeping our brain healthy and it does not take much time to take training on the software, not more than 30-40 minutes a day are required. I hope the information proves useful for all the people…
