Does your child have difficulty sustaining his attention when in a learning environment? Can he process multiple stepped instructions? Does he commit careless errors or frequently lose track of what he is doing ?
These are all key symptoms of ADHD. And they also fall under the umbrella of what is commonly called "executive function", which is indicative of working memory issues.
This talk is designed for both teachers and parents; and will give you a basic understanding of what executive function is, and how it forms the foundation for the many manifestations of ADHD. In addition, it will provide you with simple principles and guidelines to build up working memory. Lastly, it will introduce the COGMED program, which is a computer-based intervention for strengthening working memory.
We are grateful to have Mr Alvin Chan, from KIDZ Occupational Therapy Consultant, come share with us his insights into this important topic, which he has gained through helping his many clients with ADHD develop their working memory.
