Working Memory and Academic Learning: Assessment and Intervention

Milton J. Dehn

Presented by: Dehn

Working memory has a strong influence on all aspects of academic learning and performance, and working memory deficits are likely to result in specific learning disabilities. Dehn’s working memory model is reviewed along with recommendations for a comprehensive assessment of working memory. Interventions for working memory are discussed, including cognitive load modifications, accommodations, working memory exercises, and teaching working memory strategies.
