Teaching Memory Improvement to Adults

Résumé du livre

The revised edition of this practical "how-to" manual makes it easier than ever for professionals to plan and teach an effective and enjoyable memory improvement class. Designed for use in conjunction with the highly acclaimed Improving Your Memory: How to Remember What You're Starting to Forget, it reproduces pages from the student guide with instructional notes for the teacher and includes chapter introductions, additional examples and exercises, and other supplementary materials. It also discusses the variety of factors that must be considered when assessing memory problems. The Appendix explains everything involved in planning and offering a memory improvement course - from publicity to lesson plans. As clinical social workers with years of experience working with older adults, the authors understand the importance of teaching memory improvement in a way that is sensitive, comprehensive, and fun. Together, Teaching Memory Improvement to Adults and Improving Your Memory make an invaluable resource for professionals who want to create a memory improvement program that works.
