What’s inside?

Captain’s Log is a whole library of brain training exercises, but if you like, you can take it one step at a time! The fifty multi-level programs in the Captain’s Log system are organized into three training sets:

• Attention Skills Training Set
• Problem Solving and Memory Skills Training Set
• Working Memory Training Set

Attention Skills Training Set

The Attention Skills Training Set is made up of three modules of Captain’s Log: Attention Skills Developmental Module, Visual Motor Skills Module, and Attention Skills the Next Generation.

Attention Skills Developmental Module
These eight programs begin with the simple exercises you need for clients with head injuries or developmental disabilities.
Visual Motor Skills Module
These seven popular programs play like video games but work to train hand-eye coordination, visual processing, and fine motor control.
Attention Skills the Next Generation Module
Use this set to further enhance higher level attention skills and memory. These three challenging programs continue building on the skills addressed in the Attention Skills Developmental module.

Problem Solving and Memory Skills Training Set

The Problem Solving and Memory Skills Training Set is comprised of the Conceptual Memory Skills, Logic Skills, and Numeric Concepts with Memory Skills modules of Captain’s log.

Conceptual Memory Skills Module
Train the ability to classify, discriminate, and apply abstract rules to specific decisions. You can customize these seven programs to target impulse control, working memory, processing speed, and logical reasoning.
Logic Skills Module
This module features five engaging programs to help improve executive functioning. Clients learn deductive reasoning, understanding of relationships between numbers and objects, and perception of how parts fit into a whole.
Numeric Concepts with Memory Skills Module
The challenging games in these five higher level programs train working, immediate, and short-term visual memory, deductive and inductive reasoning, visual discrimination, categorization and sequencing.

Working Memory Training Set

Research supports that working memory is a vital part of executive functioning, and it can be trained successfully. This training set provides 625 hours of working memory training. The Working Memory Training Set is made up of three Captain’s Log modules: Real Life Working Memory, Working Memory Skills, and Auditory Working Memory.

Real Life Working Memory Module
These five programs are both practical and entertaining. Clients learn to put their working memory to work for them in real life situations.
Working Memory Skills Module
Help your clients learn to “think on their feet.” The five programs in this module train memory for names and faces, sequential pattern recognition, list recall, and more – skills that are vital for success in school and in life.
Auditory Working Memory Module
These five programs focus on working memory and on auditory attention. Your clients with attention deficits will improve both their working memory and their listening skills.
