Scientific Basis Of Work

Scientific experimentation is the best way we have devised to decide which of two alternatives is more likely to be true. To determine the optimal way to train, MindWeavers has done many experiments and scoured the most recent scientific literature on training to add to its knowledge. This knowledge is accumulated and used to design MindWeavers' latest products..

Our products improve human performance “by design”. Brain scanning (EEG, MRI, MEG & PET) shows neural systems are plastic and malleable highly determined by experience and changing throughout life, and that the brain can be trained and new resources built.

Our competitive advantage derives from our neuronal –level understanding of the processes involved in brain development and degeneration and our use of technology to affect brain function.The company holds licences to patented technologies, has extensive proprietary know-how, and pipeline-technology relationships with research organisations working at the cutting-edge in relevant disciplines. This is extremely difficult to replicate.To ensure the training experience offered is the best, MindWeavers must continue to give research the highest priority.


Computer Training

Personal computers are very fast and powerful. MindWeavers incorporates its latest most effective training algorithms into its software. Just as important, however, is the ability to present the training in a visually appealing way in a digital product that is fun and easy to play.

To optimise training we must maximise the amount of training. To maximise the amount of training, we must motivate the person to be trained. People are motivated by activities that are fun. Computer softwares and optimised training are well suited. MindWeavers takes great trouble to integrate all the latest in technology to present a richer, more satisfying training experience.

Quality

There are many educational and training software products available. Some of them produce good results. Not many of them have been designed from a starting point of scientific excellence. Not many have benefited from years of research in the world's top institutes and universities. In MindWeavers' products, expert experience and knowledge is interpreted into sophisticated digital products design and technology. The finished products are then scientifically validated in field trials.

Simply put, to improve a particular ability we identify those key components that determine performance and create carefully-tailored practise exercises scientifically-designed to stimulate the areas of the brain involved. Sophisticated learning algorithms dynamically link difficulty with each individual’s performance keeping them working at their “edge of competence”- continually challenged and in a “peak state”.
This adaptive “intelligent” training is highly efficient compared with traditional methods. Effective instructions alters brain function, improvements are dramatic and rapid, and practice is enjoyable, exciting, and compelling encouraging use.
