WHY IBP – COGNITIVE BENEFITS
- Cognitive skill development in individuals involves the progressive building of learning skills, such as attending, memory and thinking. These crucial skills enable children to process the sensory information they experience and eventually learn to evaluate, analyze, remember, make comparisons and understand cause and effect.
- Although some cognitive skill development is related to the child’s genetic makeup, most cognitive skills are learned. That means thinking and learning skills can be enhanced with practice and the right training.
- Learning is a complex cognitive process. IBP simplifies this process and creates a personalized learning workbook for each learner. Hence IBP workbook is as unique as each individual. Every individual will learn at their level and their pace, through the 5 important learning abilities or the operating methods which the individuals follow.
- Cognition – the ability to assimilate new material or to recognize material that has been encountered before. The ability to take new material or to recognize previously presented material.
- Memory – the ability to recall previously cognized material. Good cognition does not mean good memory.
- Convergent Production – the ability to arrive at a determinate answer from information given. This is used in problem solving.
- Divergent Production – its ability to be creative
- Evaluation – the ability to make practical judgments or decisions. Evaluation is required in situations that involve incomplete information either ambiguity (gives us choices) or uncertainty (inability to read future). It deals primarily with the practical side of life.
