Can Neurofeedback and Biofeedback Help Improve School Performance?
Greetings from Warsaw’s EEG Institute Biofeedback,
YES, Neurofeedback and Biofeedback is very helpfull for rapid learning, for attention and focus, for short reflection time, for motivation, memory, planning and organization, for calm creative mind. In Poland I have about 11 years experiences with neurofeedback in the schools as help for children with learning difficulties, with ADHD/ADD, with sensory problems, with inappropriate behaviour, also for children with autism, sy Asperger, with psychomotorical delay, after trauma capitis etc. Polish Ministry of National Education with help of ESF was made in 2006 a Project for these children in the 230 schools with neurofeedback with active participation of EEG Institute in Warsaw (EEG Instytut). EEG Institute organized neurofeedback systems, educational trainings, scripts, standardization of methods and cycles of supervisions
After 2006 a great amount of schools also worked with neurofeedback in language delay, in other neuropsychical problems. Actually the most of schools working with Deymed, in last years also with NeXus biofeedback systems. We are looking for partners in the schools in all world.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2011

Yes! Research shows that Neurofeedback and Biofeedback helps individuals in areas of creativity, attention, time on task, memory and reduced impulsivity. Attention & Focus are essential to success in school. An inability to pay attention and stay focused can result in reduced grades and inappropriate behavior in the classroom. Time On-Task is required to be able to complete school-work assignments. It should not take hours to do homework that normally should take 30 minutes. Not finishing assignments in class will lead to bad reports from the teacher, and poor grades. Visual Tracking is important to be able to follow what is written on the blackboard, and to follow what the teacher is doing as she gives a lesson in class. Discriminatory Processing is the ability to filter out external noise and distractions in order to stay focused on the primary stimuli. If your child has problems with discriminatory processing, even the most minor noise or movement can lead to substantial distraction
