How is The Brain Gyms program different from other remediation programs?
Traditional help for individuals with learning problems has typically focused on one of four methodologies: sensory therapy (vision, auditory) motor therapy (speech, occupational) psychotherapy (motivation) academic remediation (remedial reading, learning disabled programs, tutoring) Although these methods may be effective in correcting a sensory, motor, or very specific academic problem, they have had limited results in significantly improving learning performance. PACE, on the other hand, is a process-specific approach using planned, repetitive exercises that place demands on deficient mental functions. When the student masters the exercise, a more demanding exercise that targets the same mental skill is available to continue the training.
