BrainWare SAFARI Case Studies: School Resource Setting

About This Webinar

BrainWare SAFARI cognitive skills development software has been used with a variety of populations from special education to normally developing, to gifted, and at a variety of grade levels from elementary school through college, with impact on students’ cognitive and academic performance.

There are probably as many ways to implement cognitive skills training with BrainWare SAFARI in a school as there are schools, but they also have some important things in common. In this webinar, we will share the story of three successful BrainWare SAFARI implementations that focus on the use of the program in a resource setting,. We will describe each school’s journey – from how the initial decision to use the program was made to the results for students and the impact for the teachers.

Webinar hosting presenter Betsy Hill
Betsy Hill is an experienced educator and President of BrainWare Learning Company. She has studied the application of neuroscience to teaching and learning with Dr. Patricia Wolfe and other experts and works with educators, clinicians and corporate trainers on using neuroscience research to address some of the most perplexing problems in education, including closing the gap for historically underperforming students. She addressed issues of college and career preparedness as a trustee and board chair at Chicago State University. She holds a Master of Arts in Teaching and an MBA from Northwestern University, and teaches strategy at Lake Forest Graduate School of Management and the University of Illinois Chicago.

I like to describe myself as a "recovering" educator, but the truth is that I am more excited than ever about what neuroscience is uncovering about the brain and how we can use that information to enable each individual to reach his or her cognitive potential. I'm here to share what I've been learning over the last ten years and to continue learning from others in this amazing and fast developing field.
