Our Methods:
Our learning process is based on adapting the following strategies:
1. Stimulus-Response
a. Cognitive: The person who is learning is taught to understand what is required an how to go about to achieve it.
b. Associative: The person practices the skills in order to develop the necessary sesnorimotor connections.
c. Autonomous: The link between the presence of the appropriate stimulus and the motor performance of the skills becomes automatic, and the skills is performed with very little voluntary control.
2. Information processing

Plan Formation: Identification of what is required and developing a cognitive plan in order to guide and organize the necessary actions.
Perceptional organization: Filtering the sensory inputs so that individuals can distinguish between relevant sensory information and that which is irrelevant.
Economy of motor action: Minimizing the conscious control and sensory input required to perform learning skills.
Timing: Developing a continuous unbroken act through consolidation of the sequencing and co-ordination of the sensorimotor patterns and responses.
Automatic Execution: Transformation of the learning skills from conscious to unconscious control (from cerebral cortex to the cerebellum and spinal cord) so that few cognitive demands on the individual is made.
