MyCognition Student & Teacher Training Presentation notes
Slide 1 – Student Presentation
Slide 2 - Cognitive health is critical…
 This is an opportunity to find out what your students already know about cognition,
and build on their existing knowledge
Slide 3 - Cognition can be divided…
 These are the main areas and skills that make up a healthy cognition and that our
assessment focuses on measuring.
Slide 4 – Why is a healthy cognition important? (Listed on the slide)
Slide 5 – How do MyCognition help improve your cognitive health…
You can play…
 Mini MyCQ sets up and personalises the training within the video games to the
specific needs of each individual student.
 After completing the assessment, the student will have access to AquaSnap or
EcoSnap. The student simply needs to log on with their username and password
and they will be directed straight to the game
 The students will have 3 x scheduled gameplay sessions each week.
 (30 minutes should be allocated to each session to ensure the minimum of 90
minutes of gameplay per week, is achieved). The first game play is guided;
thereafter there is a help function to provide additional support.
 As the training continues, the game keeps track of how each student’s cognitive
skills are changing and continually adapts making sure the personalised training,
enhances all areas of cognition.
Slide 6 - How often do you need…
 It is VERY important that a minimum of 90 minutes of gameplay is achieved each
week over an 8-week period, for students to receive the benefit from the training.
 Our evidence has shown that there is a dose effect with the training. The more you
train, the more cognitive benefit you receive.
If your students would like to play at home, we are happy for them to do this. All
they need to do is log on, with their user name and password, directly to the portal
at: https://cognitivegames.com (Please make sure students know their
passwords)
Slide 7 - At the end…
 On completion of the training you and your students will receive an email inviting
you to click on the link and complete a survey. These will be multiple choice, with
some spaces for comments.
Slide 8 - You are pioneers!
 We are very excited about this opportunity to work with you and your students.
Cognitive training in school is pioneering, and could have a massive impact on how
we educate our students. Your participation and commitment to this pilot cannot be
underestimated. We are extremely happy to have you join us on this great journey.
