Memory and visual discrimination problems are tackled when students evaluate differences between pairs of playful, high-interest illustrations. Students recall and interpret information in scenes of increasing difficulty and learn to watch for and remember missing details. The lessons in this book consist of reproducible pages, background information, easy-to-evaluate exercises, and checklists for tracking success.
Grades 2-3 Builds visual, motor, and critical thinking skills for reading, writing, and math. Develops the child's recognition of letters, words, number, and similar/dissimilar objects. It also improves sequencing and visual memory skills. Designed specifically for shorter attention spans. No reading is required. Directions may be read aloud as needed. Each book includes eight progressively more challenging skill sections with pretests and post-tests to evaluate students' beginning and ending skill levels."
"As part of the engineering psychology research program on tracking, experiments are being conducted to determine systematically how man discriminates velocity and acceleration. Results of these experiments provide for a fuller understanding of the visual processes of the tracker in predicting the motion of a target. The method of experimentation used involves an unequivocal response to visual movement. The observer, presented with a spot traveling at a controlled speed, reports its direction. In this experiment four observers discriminated velocity at eight speeds for each of eight exposure times. The minimal luminance required for the discrimination was determined for each condition. Analysis of the results indicated that the visual discrimination of velocity under the experimental conditions is a single discriminatory event controlled by photochemical activity in the retina. For exposure times less than 0.1 second the discrimination is determined by the product of stimulus luminance and duration. For longer intervals the discrimination tends to be dependent on luminance alone. The results further showed that duration and speed interact with each other as determinants of the discrimination. This finding suggests that distance, the product of duration and speed, is a relevant variable."--Abstract
Follow directions with special-education students in grades PK–1 using Listen, Look, and Do! This 96-page book teaches students to listen, follow directions, and remember what they see and hear. The book provides meaningful practice in visual/aural discrimination and memory skills through stories, rhymes, puzzles, coloring pages, cut-and-paste activities, sequencing, and hidden pictures. This book is geared toward young and special learners and supports NCTE and NAEYC standards.
"Developing Ocular Motor and Visual Perceptual Skills contains daily lesson plans and practical tips on how to successfully start an activities program. Other helpful features include a glossary of terms and a reference list of individuals and organizations that work with learning disabled children to develop these skills. The first of its kind, Developing Ocular Motor and Visual Perceptual Skills utilizes a learning approach by linking the theories with the remediation activities to help learning disabled children improve their perceptual and fine motor skills. All professionals looking to assess and enhance a variety of fine motor and visual perception deficiencies will welcome this workbook into their practices" -- Publisher description.
VISUAL TRACKING, the required skill for successful READING, WRITING and most other ACADEMICS! VISUAL TRACKING, the first skill mastered in SPEED READING! Visual Tracking Skills improve: 1.Reading Speed 2.Reading Accuracy 3.Attention to Detail 4.Reading Comprehension 5.Letter and Number Reversals 6.Sequencing 7.Visual Processing 8.Brain Processing 9.Brain Timing Using the techniques in this book, your student can improve visual processing skills, sequencing skills, improve visual tracking and lessen the occurrence of reversals. This form of cognitive therapy can be used by therapists, teachers, tutors and parents to teach and reinforce important skills necessary for successful reading and writing
