TAMAM Improvement Project (2014-2015)
Weak Working Memory Among Female Students
*This improvement initiative was under the supervision of TAMAM coaches in American University of Cairo and Assiut University.
Project Description: After observing female students, we noticed that there is a weakness in students’ performance due to weak working memory, and these difficulties include:
- Difficulty in visual and oral understanding
- Learning difficulties
- Difficulty in performing difficult mental processes
- Low academic levels regardless of students’ high intellectual level
- Difficulty in understating and retaining the course content as explained by the teachers
- When reading the sentence, students cannot remember what came before it
Developmental Objective of the Project:
- Train teachers to use techniques that enhance students’ working memory
- Train female students to use techniques that enhance their working memory skills whether they were intelligent, average, or with special needs
- Provide parental workshops to teach them about different mechanics to help improve their children’s working memory
