I've got into the DS Brain Training program :-)

While initially sceptical, I saw it starting to make an impact in school, raising the profile of mental maths, which piqued my professional interest. One has to be clear that the central conceit of 'brain age' is a convenient nonsense for marketing purposes, but, as a moveable measure of performance, a lot healthier than the harmful and monumental (sorry) myth of a fixed 'capacity' like IQ.

More musing, boasting, etc... )

I hope the more useful slogan of 'brain age' can start to bury the deleterious spectre of I.Q.
