Compublox is a brain-training program, suitable for children aged 9 up to adults. Unlike Audiblox, Compublox is not suitable for children younger than 9, and also not for children of any age with low abilities. For children with reading and learning difficulties, Compublox is best used as a supplement to Audiblox. Compublox (compatible with Windows ME/2000/XP/Vista/7 in 32- and 64-bit editions) was developed by Dr. Jan Strydom (MA, HED, DEd), who also developed the well-known Audiblox program. Compublox consists of eight challenging exercises, aimed at practicing and strengthening fundamental cognitive skills:
- Concentration;
- Accurate perception;
- Visual discrimination, synthesis and analysis;
- Auditory discrimination, synthesis and analysis;
- Sensory register, especially iconic memory;
- Visual memory;
- Auditory memory;
- Short-term and working memory;
- Long-term memory;
- Reasoning;
- Logical thinking.
Improving the ability to concentrate allows a person to avoid the problems, embarrassment, and difficulties that occur when the mind wanders. Better concentration makes studying easier and speeds up comprehension. It enables one to take advantage of the social and business opportunities that arise when individuals are fully attuned to the world around them. It helps one to focus on one's goals and achieve them more easily.
