Fast ForWord® to Learning

Imagine playing video games for an hour a day to improve your ability to learn! Fast ForWord® is an innovative program that trains the brain to improve Memory, Attention, Processing and Sequencing of information - MAPS™. These are foundational skills for all learning, but particularly for learning associated with language. Many years of neuroscience research confirm that the brain can change and improve its function with training. Like building muscles at a gym with regular practice, the brain can improve memory, attention, processing and sequencing with frequent and intense stimulation and training. This program presents carefully chosen exercises in a video game format. Students who complete these game-based activities improve critical skills needed to listen, speak, read, and write.
