WHY DOES THE STUDENT'S BRAIN REQUIRE SPECIAL CARE?
Concentration, emotion regulation and faster learning are not just a matter of individual talent or motivation. All these processes have their source in neural activity – which is why today’s pedagogy tends to use technologies that support brain functions.
EEG Neurofeedback, also known as neurofeedback, is becoming a helpful tool when working with children with learning difficulties, cognitive and mental disorders (ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, anxiety disorder) and those requiring support after CNS injuries. Thanks to the ELMIKO EEG Neurofeedback system, one can have a real impact on how a child’s brain responds to stress, processes information and learns new skills.
WHAT IS EEG NEUROFEEDBACK AND WHAT ARE ITS BENEFITS?
EEG Neurofeedback is a method that allows you to regulate brain activity based on real-time feedback obtained from measuring the patient’s brain waves. The student, connected to the EEG system, performs computer tasks where the outcome depends on the student’s brain activity. Correct responses are further reinforced, supporting the brain’s ability to adapt and create new neural connections.
EEG Neurofeedback therapy brings significant benefits in terms of mental health and mental performance of students, leading, among other things, to:
- Reduction of emotional tension, impulsivity and perceived stress,
- Increased sense of self-efficacy and self-awareness of one’s own psychophysical states,
- Improved concentration, working memory and extended focus time, even in cases of learning difficulties such as dyslexia, dysorthography or dyscalculia.
ELMIKO EEG NEUROFEEDBACK SYSTEM – A SOLUTION DESIGNED FOR EDUCATION
The ELMIKO EEG Neurofeedback system has been designed for therapeutic support in psychological and educational contexts. It stands out from other solutions by providing:
- Tracking of therapeutic progress using a learning curve graph and access to over 130 specialised 2D, 3D, audio and VR boards,
- Ability to define your own training protocols, point sets and to add additional frequency bands,
- Ability to remove artefacts and disturbances during signal analysis,
Expandability to a system with a 32-channel amplifier, capable of simultaneous QEEG diagnosis.
WHO IS THE ELMIKO EEG NEUROFEEDBACK SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR?
The ELMIKO EEG Neurofeedback system will be useful for:
- Pedagogues and school psychologists,
- Teachers working with students with special learning needs,
- Psychological and pedagogical counselling centres and therapy practices.
BEYOND EEG NEUROFEEDBACK – CLASSIC EEG AND tDCS
Although EEG Neurofeedback plays an important role in neuropedagogy, the classic EEG remains the basic diagnostic tool in the assessment of children and adolescents. The ELMIKO EEG System – thanks to its exceptionally low noise levels and the ability to record ultra-low frequencies – allows for the diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders, analysis of epileptic seizures, and monitoring of brain activity development at different stages of development. The ability to access the database from multiple workstations and generate easy-to-read reports positions the system as an excellent solution for clinics and therapy offices.
ELMIKO also offers other non-invasive neuromodulation methods, such as tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) and tACS (transcranial alternating current stimulation), which are distinguished by high precision of stimulation parameters and intuitive software. Under supervised conditions, they can support memory consolidation processes, increase cognitive abilities and improve concentration during learning.
TRAINING COURSES DEDICATED TO NEUROMODULATION METHODS AT THE AKSON EDUCATION CENTRE
To fully utilise the potential of neuromodulation tools in education, ELMIKO, together with AKSON Centrum Edukacji (AKSON Education Centre), conducts comprehensive training in the following fields:
- EEG and QEEG,
- Conducting EEG Neurofeedback training,
- Theoretical and practical application of tDCS,
- Integration of neuromodulation systems with educational therapy.
AKSON trainings combine theory with clinical practice, giving participants real-life skills to work with children and adolescents.
THE CHILD'S BRAIN UNDER TECHNOLOGY CARE
Thanks to ELMIKO systems, teachers and therapists acquire tools that support children’s cognitive and emotional development. The integration of neurotechnology with pedagogical knowledge allows for a better understanding of students and a more effective approach to their needs.
