Memory Booster - Pooter's castle Do you have children who can't remember information or instructions? Who can't learn for tests and examinations? Memory Booster will help them to aquire effective learning strategies and give them practice that will develop their verbal and visual memory skills. Memory Booster teaches flexible memory strategies and takes the child through enjoyable exercises that develop and extend learning skills.

Exciting adventure game

Memory Booster is presented in the form of an adventure game set in Pooter's castle. Pooter the master computer has lost his memory and needs help from the child to recover it. Built-in cartoon rewards and encouragements that use attractive and humorous graphics help to keep children highly motivated and to stay on task at all times.

Featuring the voice of Brian Blessed

Memory Booster has six levels, increasing in difficulty. Each level teaches a different memory strategy. As the task gets more difficult, the program encourages the child to vary their strategies and to find which ones work best for them.

Can be used at school and home

Memory Booster - The game room Memory Booster does not require teacher supervision to be effective. The program can be used to equal effect at home as well as at school. The program automatically adapts to each child's rate of learning. Children can be left to work with the program at their own pace, freeing up teacher time in the school and making it the ideal choice by parents for home use.

Progress charts

Memory Booster gradually stretches the child's skills through structured practice as well as equipping them with a range of effective memory strategies that they can apply to any learning task. Children can play on Memory Booster as much as they like and as often as they like.

A graphical report of the child's performance is available for every session and shows how the child is progressing over time. Children can also print out their own certificates of achievement.
