Learning disabilities, dyslexia and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder are an enormous burden for the children concerned and all those who work with them. However, Fritz Jansen and Uta Streit show what can be done about it: In their "IntraActPlus" concept, which they have been using successfully for years, they make use of the findings of learning psychology at school, during homework and in their leisure time.

The "AlphaPlus" training program offers a new approach to promoting adults' literacy skills. A total of seven modules can be used individually or as a basic education program. The literacy materials were developed on the basis of neuroscientific findings as part of the "AlphaPlus" project funded by the BMBF. "AlphaPlus" refers to everyday working life and can also be used for people with native languages other than German. The guide informs course instructors about working with "AlphaPlus": It introduces the topic of functional illiteracy, describes in detail the program modules available online, and reports on initial practical experiences.

The Warnke Method - by practitioners for practitioners
Guide "Effective language support and treatment of speech disorders".

Volume II:
Effective language support and treatment of language disorders

As a follow-up to the first volume "The Warnke Method - Practical Integration into Daily Work with Children, Adolescents and Adults", this volume focuses on "The Warnke Method in Speech and Language Therapy".

For years, speech therapists have been incorporating elements of the Warnke Method into their practice(s) - but what does this incorporation look like in concrete terms?

Six experienced participants of the interdisciplinary cooperation partner network of MediTECH Electronic GmbH will talk about their daily work. In addition to four speech therapists, a physician and an occupational therapist also have their say and report on their interdisciplinary procedures and experiences.
Using real case studies, they demonstrate their approach to training typical disorder patterns from speech therapy and speech therapy. The work with mainly children from the age of four, school children up to adults is considered.

Basic work by Fred Warnke: "What Hanschen does not learn, ...". In his parenting guide, Fred Warnke describes the essential background and possibilities of the Warnke procedure, the associated test procedure and gives concrete advice on lateral training, the core of the Warnke procedure he developed.

The beat of the brain ... (3rd edition)
Our brain does not work steadily, but in a certain clock sequence with interruptions. Therefore, we can only take in and process new or changed sensory stimuli every 20 to 40 milliseconds. If this brain cycle is accelerated, our comprehension and learning abilities increase; if it is slowed down, these skills suffer. Reading and spelling difficulties or declining brain functions in old age are related to this.

The author, who is experienced in the field of psychoacoustics and psycholinguistics, describes in a generally understandable way the current state of knowledge about the basic skills of our brain, which are still far removed from language. He presents practical tools for testing brain functions and offers the measurement of so-called low-level functions on the enclosed CD-ROM. A training method developed by the author serves to accelerate these basic brain skills. It is intended not only to halt age-related decline, but even to reverse it.

The textbook offers a structured introduction to phoniatrics and pedaudiology. In basic chapters, the normal function of the vocal and speech apparatus is explained; based on this, the corresponding disorders are presented. In addition to the medical aspects, the psychological and linguistic aspects of voice and speech are considered in detail.

M.O.R.E. means: Motor, Oral, Respiration, Eyes (Motor, Mouth, Breathing and Eyes), and is the acronym of a model designed to help therapists assess the effect of treatments that improve oral, respiratory, sensory and postural functions.
The book was written by a group of occupational therapists who are among the most qualified and experienced in the United States. They examine the apparently independent systems of motor, mouth, respiration and eyes and show that there is an exchange and interdependence between these systems. They expand this thesis by introducing the concept of SSA (suck-swallow-breath synchronism) as a synergy.
According to Patricia Wilbarger (FAOTA), this concept represents a breakthrough in the development of clinical theories of behavioral processes at the neurophysiological level.
This book allows us to see certain sensory and motor systems from a completely different perspective. This makes it possible to understand many unusual behaviors with which the individual attempts to organize or "heal" himself. In many cases, the duration of treatment can be shortened, made more efficient and effective.
interested parties: Occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech therapists, speech therapists, doctors, psychologists and members of other health care professions.

The importance of reading letter by letter has been proven by Dr. Daniel Zahnd at the University of Bern in studies lasting several years. This special reading material was developed from the findings there. It corresponds without restriction to German grammar and word structure; the meaningless texts "force" the reader to adopt a reading strategy that is oriented towards letters and not pictures of words - a high-quality training material for young and old.
