Reading and Cognitive Evaluation

Edublox specialises in educational interventions comprising of cognitive training, reading, spelling, comprehension and maths.

Determining Strengths and Weaknesses

Our educational staff makes use of an Edublox evaluation that helps determine the child’s cognitive strengths and weaknesses, as well as their reading abilities. 

The evaluation is not diagnostic, but aims to determine

  • the learner’s cognitive, reading and educational needs,
  • if Edublox will be a good fit for the learner, and which specific Edublox services will be the best fit,
  • an estimate of the number of hours of cognitive, reading and/or maths training that will be required, and
  • if any additional help and exercises are needed. (A child who reverses b’s and d’s, for example, might need to spend four minutes per day doing additional exercises at home.)

After the evaluation, the results are discussed with the parents and recommendations are made.

Two forms of the evaluation are in use at Edublox branches: a computer-based and a more hands-on evaluation. The article, Three Cognitive Skills that Matter for Academic Achievementwhich was presented at the Edulearn19 International Conference on New Learning Technologies, gives some clarity about the cognitive skills assessed.
