HIGHLIGHTS Why Jeff wants to help kids develop attention skills The technology behind BrainLeap How specialized games can help train kids' attention skills Jeff's plans for the podcast What Jeff hopes to achieve with the show QUOTES Jeff: "The games that were created in the lab and we have since commercialized are all about training attention skills. You use an eye tracker to play the games. You actually don't use the mouse or keyboard. You only use your eyes to control the game and this means that kids really learn what focus is. They really get to practice it." Jeff: "We want everyone to know that attention is trainable. And nearly everyone can improve their attention skills. It's not something you're born with, it's not something that's fixed. You can definitely learn these skills and have much stronger attention skills." Jeff: "There are medications out there that help with attention, and it's great that those exist for those who really need it. But that doesn't make a child feel successful. It doesn't make them feel like they can do it themselves. That's a really key component of what we want to help convey."
