Younger children use their working memory for a number of things, such as focusing on and following instructions, and remaining seated to complete independent activities.

Cogmed RM School-Age
Working memory is crucial for children and adolescents in school and social situations. Reading, solving math problems, planning and following a conversation all rely on working memory.

Cogmed QM Adult
Working memory in adult and professional life is critical for challenges such as planning, focusing, resisting distraction and meeting deadlines.
