  About the Software :
Life skills like any other skills requires constant practice to hone it.
People have the tendency to take these skills for granted and over a period of time it rusts from lack of practice.
Children on the other hand have lot of opportunities to practice in their daily interaction and learning and they retain their skills at Memory and concentration.
Our software modules are six and are built on the premises of connections elucidated by neuropsychologists related to these skills.
The software teaches the techniques required to develop the skill apart from evaluating the existing capability.
The software gets installed in the home computer and stays in the hard-disc as long as the computer at home is in good condition.
That way parents and three children can work on the modules and practice at their own time, in their own place, any number of times.
The more they practice, the better the skills.
The person whose skills are good stands out as the "smart" one.
Each level gives scoring of marks, and feedback how to improve.
History records the database of all their attempts and scoring and gives a over-all performance view. This makes our software a unique Self-Awareness product.
Unlike Videogames, our modules are programmed in such a way that your computer itself random generate the scenes from a large database. So everytime one plays the modules, they have to use the skills to get good scores. Hence is a training software as well
It can be installed in a computer in any household and opens for 5 users.The cost of family version CD in India is fixed at Rs 695/=(inclusive of all taxes ), a one time investment only.

  Modules :
There are six modules designed to test the basic ability of an individual in terms of Memory & Concentration. Needless to say this is the most important basic skill for not just to survive but also to thrive in this competitive environment. Each of the six modules tests the six variants of Memory & Concentration in an individual, namely:
1. Picture recognition
2. Paired Associate Learning
3. Immediate Recall
4. Serial processing
5. Parallel processing
6. Recognition and Recall
Each of these modules runs at III levels from easy to difficult.
At each level, the individual's performance is depicted as Scores obtained.
A feedback has been built into the software for all these 18 levels depending on the marks one scores during the test. The consultant psychologist based on their knowledge and experience after testing more than 3000 candidates has offered this basic feedback.
Each individual can assess his/her performance any time by clicking on "history", which gives complete details of date and time of taking the tests, marks scored each time and even time taken to do the test. This builds the confidence level and encourages more participation to eventually culminate in improvement and enhancement of memory and concentration.
Essentially, this software is a SELF AWARENESS tool that surely motivates the individual to realize one's capability and seek or be receptive for improvement. Also, if repeatedly done over a period of time works as Training tool to enhance their capability.
We opted out of using sound and animation (both quite easily and abundantly available technology), is that the psychologists do NOT want any sort of distraction at the time or to divert the attention while working on the software. We have programmed such that the computer itself random generates the screens and is under no body's control. So, no two scenes are similar, unlike the video games where you can learn the obstructions at each level and circumvent when you come there the next time. In our modules, everytime you have to use your memory and concentration if you have to score high marks. That's how the software works as a training tool.
We cannot show the mistakes as the computer random generates the scene and you cannot go back to the scene you just did. But the scores are recorded in each level if you click on the history button. By this one can assess the performance.
  Security :
A state of the art Security has been built to register the software in the Personal computer.
The details of "How to register" are explicitly explained in the User manual in the DVD box.
Internet connection is required for a few minutes only to generate the license key for registration of the software. Upon registration the software will be activated. By just clicking on the MBS icon on your desktop, one can get into the software any number of times. In order to ensure the privacy of each individual's progress and scoring, we have provided the option for each user to enter his/her own personal access information. Users may want to write down their personal username & passwords.
  Is there a money-back guarantee?
No, not possible for following reasons:
The improvement is non-tangible and experienced by the user how he/she feels compared to earlier times. But the improvement in memory and concentration can be well documented and retrieved from 'history' in the software, for personal or institutional perusal.
The benefit cannot be hence measured, except to show as improvement in performance not only in their work on the software but also in their day-to-day vocation. This depends on the application ability of user.
The derivations of benefit from this software depend on the user, their interest, and their commitment to practice daily or frequently etc., and are not under our control.
  Scientific basis of the software.
Information processing happens at a macro level in the brain. Each detail is recorded in the brain in association with the existing information. , to use memory and concentration a student should learn to exercise various regions of the brain. This interactive module helps the studentin doing so. Memory is measured in four different ways: Recognition, Recall, Relearning, and ReintegrationMBS is a product of a rare combination of Applied Psychology, Educationists and software development team for the sole purpose of SELF-AWARENESS in evaluating & enhancing one's basic skills. The contents of the software is the research conducted in over 4000 students at various schools and colleges in Bangalore. The research was done in classrooms on paper and posters and generally takes one month to just evaluate one section in a school. With advancement in software we have now developed the same psychometric tests on software platform so that it can reach and benefit large number of students across the country. We have registrations from across the country, from Kohima, Darjeeling, Gangtok in the north to Tuticorin and Cochin in south, and in all major A and B class cities. We have registered users in Paris, UK, USA and middle east countries already. We have generated feedbacks from the users from their e-mails and are generally very pleased and satisfied. (Uploaded as testimonials in our website).
  Advantages to the End User.
This helps in development of both right and left hemispheres of the brain.
"Self awareness" of an individual's capability in each of the six modules of memory and concentration.
It throws light on deficiency related to the six dimensions.
Training in that particular dimension will help enhance their capability.
One can keep track of their enhancement of each of these dimensions by observing the time taken to complete the module and scores obtained.
A graphic display of this will summarize the individual's ability.
By repeated attempts, each of these modules constitutes by itself a training module by virtue of random selection of sequences by the computer.
The feedback provides insights into possible errors and deficiency- Rectification of this help in enhancement of Basic Skills.
Lastly and most importantly, practicing these life skills in their day-to-day interaction will sharpen the skills- effectively make them more 'smarter'.
Our target is any family who owns computer, especially families with children, students.
