COGx Impact

We improve teaching and learning outcomes for partner organizations and offer independent measurement of impact and validation of our programs.

Professional Development for Educators

Learning outcomes are proven to improve significantly when educators apply the science of how their students learn to improve how they teach. This is evidenced through independent research and validated by our partner organizations.

“I think the topics of this course should be given as teacher training for all teachers. This was the first time I had had any type of training on how to work with students who may have different roadblocks to attention, working memory, and processing speed. This training helped me to understand my students much better.”
Marcus SloanTeacher, New York
"I enyoyed the different ways the information was presented. I enjoyed the priming pre-quiz to get me thinking about the topics and that I could either learn from the videos or the writing since information was similar."
Rana KhanScience Teacher, Jordan
This program was very well structured to balance instruction with reflection and application. I enjoyed experiencing first hand what I was learning as a learner before using it a teacher with my own students.
Stephanie RamseyTeacher, California
I immediately began to model some of the first concepts I was taught into my own classroom and saw results right away. Very powerful techniques and essential information!

"The current approach to teaching is often disconnected from how students learn and causes too many students to drop-out, struggle, and/or work too hard to do well (Hynes, 2014). This in turn, inhibits interest and careers in STEM, which are often perceived to be “too hard” by students or “for smart kids”

"Research has demonstrated that variation in student achievement is correlated with differences between teachers.”

Individualized Programs

COGx individualized cognitive enhancement programs are built around the unique learning (cognitive) profile of each learner. Each program is customized in its approach and designed to achieve goals that are based on real-life outcomes.

COGx-cognitive-skills-gains

COGx programs are designed to develop independent (self-directed) learners. Our clinical approach ensures each student masters the scientific principles that underpin learning success (at an age appropriate level), while targeting and strengthening the core cognitive skills responsible for learning, and we ensure these gains transfer to real-life, which no other cognitive program claims or achieves.

COGx partner organizations measure the gains of COGx programs through a combination of tools, including surveys and/or academic performance improvements. In addition, we measure the cognitive gains of the program through clinical (independent) batteries. Partners may have the ability to use a combination of cognitive assessments, we also provide options. Our intent is to ensure we have an objective, independent and accurate measure of the impact each program provides the learner.

“I didn’t even need to see the results to know how well Sam did with the training; the results were evident in the grades. Sam especially has made big improvements in math and accuracy.”

  • Agree their student’s have a better understanding of how they learn and ability to apply to schoolwork”
  • Agree their student is more independent, confident and successful learning”
  • Agree COGx was a good investment and that they’d recommend COGx to others”

Dr. Cindy Sandler Ward

“Since obtaining my Ph.D. in psychology in 1979, I have pursued my lifelong desire to help others reach their potential. I have sought effective interventions that improve learning by addressing cognition throughout my entire career. In 2013 I began referring students to COGx and realized I had found a uniquely effective methodology. As a result, I decided to close a successful private practice in psycho-educational testing to help democratize access to COGx.”

Group-Based Memory Program

Memory is foundational to learning. In our group-based program, student master evidence-based methods of improving memory with their peers to enhance learning outcomes.

“If this memory program was integrated into the school system, and teachers and students knew the techniques and strategies we learned, everyone would be a lot smarter!”

Course: Science of Successful Learning

Research reveals most students use ineffective strategies to learn. Our course teaches students the science of learning in an engaging format that focuses on mastering and applying evidence-based learning tools.

I didn't know what Executive Function was until I was taught about it in this course and I depend on it for my success learning every day. The same applies for the way I was studying to learn information. No one had ever explained to me how to learn efficiently or properly. I now feel like I'm in control of my learning and I know how to manage the process so much better!
