Practising at the performance limit
The general training principle applies: Practise at your performance limit!
The central element of this diagnostic and therapy software is to first determine the pupil’s individual performance level (e.g. can recognise 4 letters reliably in 250 ms and pronounce them immediately). This level of performance forms the starting point from which the pupil improves in small steps. The same exercises are therefore used for diagnosis (i.e. to determine the level of performance) and for treatment.
An example
To illustrate the principle, let’s take the high jump, for example:
Every child can jump over the bar up to a certain level. This limit is the child’s respective performance level, their “operating point” so to speak. Once this has been determined, the bar is raised in small steps to improve the child’s performance through practice. The “operating point” of the respective child is also determined individually in this software without standardised specifications and the exercises or therapy are adapted to the performance level.
