Advanced NDS Active Learning-

Eye Movements ​

 

In this advanced course, we will focus in detail on primary reflexes, which play a key role in the development of Eye movements. Primary reflexes are essential for stimulating brain development and creating important neural connections, enabling the child to respond appropriately to visual stimuli and laying the foundation for future learning.

​

We will explore how a child learns to coordinate eye muscles to properly fixate, focus, converge, and track objects with their eyes. These skills are fundamental for effective visual information processing. Additionally, we will demonstrate how understanding these processes can assist in working with children with specific needs, such as learning or attention disorders, and why interdisciplinary collaboration is important.

​

The course material is presented through text materials and video lectures, and there are also PDF scripts available that are tailored for online learning.

​

This educational course is designed for professionals from various fields who have already completed the introductory NDS course and the advanced "NDS Active Learning" course, with the aim of providing a comprehensive overview of the developmental aspects of visual perception.

 

The course also includes practical exercises that can be effectively implemented into the "NDS Active Learning" program.
