Eye/Hand Coordination

So, you've played computer games and every title on those pricey little boxes. You have developed great coordination between your eyes and your hands. You are king of this and master of that. (You will notice I haven't actually named any of the games. That's because I don't play them and, while I've heard of a lot of them, I haven't made a great effort to remember the names.)

 

OK. Eye/hand coordination is great, right? What happens when you have to add your brain to the mix? Eye/brain/hand coordination? You mean "brain" as in school? Yes, that brain.

 

Try this little test. Call it a game if that makes you feel better. Relax. Follow the instructions. Don't search the 'net for cheats; there aren't any. Just do it.

 

Let everyone know how you did. It took me five tries to score 100. That's not so bad, is it?

100% first try. I participate in a study that asks me to do this every three years. There's a sheet with 100 of those on it. I am given 90 seconds and am asked to read through the sheet as quickly as possible saying the word. Then they turn the sheet over (same thing, different order) and I say the colour of the letters. As I got older there was more variation in word and colours.

 

I'm experienced.

um I don't understand what the big deal is.. got 100% on the first try. Nice straightforward instructions and only a little confusion on the first one as I had to remember the instructions before clicking. And yes Mike, I think five times might be bad in this case.

I didn't think five was very good either. If you don't get it right away, you have to kind of train yourself to look at - not read - the word. I get 100% the first time every time I try it now. :P

100% first try. Thank you Brain Training on the DS!

 

Oh, yeah. Brain training on the DS...a fine way to spend an hour or so while (1) waiting for a doctor's appointment, (2) waiting to be escorted into the courtroom, (3) waiting for anything. But, my brain is a lot younger than I am...so, if I have an erotic dream, am I in legal trouble?

Nah... it's only in religion that thoughts count as deeds. As long as you keep them inside your head you'll be safe.... from the law that is :)
