Lectures move fast—sometimes too fast for students with ADHD. With no option to pause or rewind, the constant stream of information can be overwhelming, making it difficult to stay focused and retain key points. This can lead to feelings of frustration and stress.
This is why fostering independence in learning is important for ADHD students. When students can manage their learning process and access information at their own pace, it boosts their confidence and improves their overall academic performance and well-being.
Here’s how Jamworks empowers ADHD students to take control of their learning journey in four key ways:
1. Tackling working memory challenges – Jamworks automatically captures and highlights Key Points from lectures, so students no longer have to rely solely on their working memory to capture and retain every detail. This organised approach provides a structured record of essential information, making it easier for students to review and retain lecture content without the stress of memorising or writing everything down during fast-paced lectures.
2. Enhancing concentration – With its Focus Reading mode, Jamworks transforms text into a more engaging visual experience. By highlighting the beginning of each word, it creates fixation points that help guide the eyes and improve reading focus. Additionally, the ADHD mode minimises distractions by dimming the screen and emphasising relevant content, helping students maintain concentration during study sessions.
3. Managing sensory overload – With customisable accessibility profiles, Jamworks allows students to adjust text sizes, colours, and other display settings. These options create a more comfortable and manageable learning environment, reducing sensory overload and making it easier to absorb information.
4. Supporting effective study skills – With JamAI, students can ask specific questions about their lecture content and receive instant answers, allowing them to clarify complex topics on the spot. JamVision further supports this by breaking down challenging concepts from lecture slides into simpler explanations. Additionally, JamQuiz offers interactive flashcards with detailed explanations, helping students test their knowledge and reinforce key points. These features empower students to take control of their studies, promoting self-directed learning and deeper understanding.
Jamworks is transforming the way students with ADHD engage with their learning materials, breaking down barriers and enabling them to excel in their academic journey.
