New research in cognitive neuroscience together with computer technology provides a basis for educational programs designed to directly improve thinking abilities. Seventeen early school age children participated in a pilot study of 36 sessions each of computer sessions that intensively activate developing systems of executive function and physical exercises selected to activate the same brain systems in the context of whole body activity and social interaction. Children showed significant improvement on multiple measures of frontal and executive functions that differed widely from the training exercises and from one another, suggesting generalized intellectual gain.
