| | The presenters conducted two studies comparing iMapBooks to regular books for fifth graders’ reading comprehension and affective responses, via multiple-choice retention questions, open-ended essay questions, and focus groups. Participants reading iMapBooks retained significantly more spatial details from stories. Participants suggested the games be more game-like. |
| Now: | “Pre-training” Simulations For Regaining Purposeful Human Motor Controls |
| | Vince Macri, Manager, 3d Premotorskill Technologies Llc |
| | This presentation is on 3D PreMotorSkills ‘games,’ i.e. digital simulations for re-learning human motor controls. The technology is video/computer game-based and directed to “pre-training” simulations that stimulate neuronal recruitment, neurogenesis and brain plasticity related to controlling human movements. As such, 3D PreMotorSkills ‘games’ may be viewed, from a neuronal perspective, as inside-out processes augmenting physical and robotic assistive therapies, i.e. outside-in processes. |
