Interactive Metronome

Interactive Metronome (IM) is a computer-based program designed to improve rhythm and timing, attention and coordination. It typically requires 15 one-hour sessions conducted over a 3 to 5 week period. The individual performs a variety of hand and foot exercises to a rythmic beat for a high number of repetitions while guided by auditory feedback. The goal is to bring about lasting improvements in fundamental neurological and motor information processing, planning, sequencing and attentional capacities. This can contribute to improvements in social and laguage skills, behavior, academics, and motor skills.

Individuals with learning disabilities, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Autism, Asperger's, Sensory Processing Disorder, and Central Auditory Processing Disorder may benefit. The individual should be able to tolerate wearing headphones, understand and follow simple directions, imitate simple gross motor patterns and attend to a single task for at least 5 minutes. The individual should have a developmental age of at least six years.
