Foundation for Accelerated LearningFoundation for Accelerated Learning
The transfer of cognitive skills improvement into learning
performance typically begins gradually and the impact accelerates
over an individual’s lifetime. This slow initial transition occurs
because knowledge acquisition depends both on the cognitive skills
that allow an individual to take in, process, understand, and apply
information, and having a sufficient store of previously acquired
knowledge upon which to build new learning. Many individuals with
previously deficient cognitive skills have a weak fund of knowledge
as a result of their cognitive weaknesses. Here’s an example:
Consider the case of a 10-year-old boy who tests at an average
intellectual age of 8 before starting BrainWare Safari. After using
BrainWare Safari for 11 weeks, the 10-year-old tests at an average
intellectual age of 12, a 4-year improvement. This does not mean
that this child will immediately begin to handle academic tasks
appropriate for 12-year-olds. However, the 4-year improvement in
cognitive skills does mean that he is equipped with a better
learning system, with which he will start to acquire knowledge at a
faster pace. This increasing pace of knowledge acquisition will more
quickly build the store of knowledge his learning system uses as
fuel for further learning.
The impact of improving an individual’s cognitive skills can be
likened to widening a two-lane road to a four-lane superhighway. As
more information is processed at a higher rate of speed, progress is
dramatically improved, the same way that traffic along a
superhighway moves faster than a two-lane road.
