Neurolab INES
Platform
Welcome to the Neurolab INES Platform
NEUROLAB’s mission is the NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF DEAF CHILDREN from 7 to 12 years old (INES students). This assessment contributes to research on VISUOMOTOR AND VERBAL SIMULTANEOUS AND SUCCESSIVE CORTICAL PROCESSES through formal neuropsychological tests.
Promoting social inclusion of the deaf
This work and research project, beyond its direct benefit to INES’s students’ pedagogical assessment, seeks to improve the quality of the teaching-learning process with deaf children. To that end, we intend to use a strategy of comparing neuropsychological assessments with neurophysiological, neuromorphological, and neurofunctional investigations, with the intent of promoting knowledge about the particular cognitive style of the basic informational channel of the deaf: the visuomotor channel. These will serve as material support for the development of specific pedagogical strategies, that is to say, to structure mental matrices or maps that will serve as models for the development of intervention programs based on the use of simultaneous and/or successive cognitive processes (visual or verbal) geared to learning generative rules that promote the construction of various knowledge objects. All areas of teaching are contemplated for inclusion.
Deafness in children can occur in conjunction with other clinical pathologies, neurological or psychiatric. The prevalence of these and other conditions will also be studied.
