For the past 200 years, education has been a one-size-fits-all factory system— though of course we're not all the same. Neuroscience teaches us we can do so much better in addressing individual learning needs. With adaptive games, learning is fun—and faster too! Here's the BrainRush formula: Think It all starts with thinking—you can't learn if you're not focused. That's why games are so awesome—they keep you on track and engaged—so you stay focused on what you're learning, and not on what's for lunch. Adapt Adaptive gaming is the core of BrainRush's magic. The games calibrate to match individual skill and knowledge, keeping you in that learning sweet spot—not too easy, not too hard. Act We learn through feedback, which only comes from action. Games force us to act, and then react, based on the response we receive. We might not get it right at first, but we soon will, and BOOM that's how we learn. Flow Flow (being in the zone) results from total immersion in an activity when we're challenged at just the right level. Side effects may include losing track of time, joy, exclamations of Eureka!, and a profound sense of accomplishment. Master It doesn't make sense to move on to new material until you've mastered the previous material. Our algorithm reintroduces material as needed until you reach 100 percent mastery; and trust us, you'll be there before you know it! Review Soon, BrainRush will alert you when it's time to review certain concepts. That way, it stays in your brain—unlike that test you crammed for last week. ; ) We've done our research. So pick a BrainRush and start experimenting today!
