What is Witmina?

Witmina is a platform that has been designed to help you improve your cognitive intelligence through fun and engaging games. Research has shown that regularly engaging in cognitive exercises can help improve attention, memory, problem-solving skills, and decision-making abilities. By using Witmina, you'll have access to a wide range of games and study packages that are specifically tailored to your individual needs and preferences, so you can work on developing the skills that are most important to you. Additionally, Witmina provides you with quantitative performance results in its lab section, which allows you to track your progress and see how much you've improved over time. By using Witmina regularly, you'll not only improve your cognitive abilities but also enjoy the process of doing so in a fun and engaging way.

Research Behind Witmina

Initially, we conduct a comprehensive research about well-known methods of training cognitive abilities and science-based tests to offer brain training games that really measure your cognitive levels and help your development. Inspired by these tests and in cooperation with academicians and experts, we design gamified exercises that can measure the cognitive level of our users through embedded measurement mechanisms and train their cognitive functions by focusing on particular brain function categories.

Our scoring system is designed to measure your cognitive levels in main cognitive areas like memory, attention, problem-solving, coordination, and perception. Thanks to this specially designed measurement system, you can track your progress, see how you improved your performance over time, and compare your results with others. We can analyze your performance and identify your weaknesses and strength. Thus, we can lead you on how to train your brain to improve yourself in the most effective way.

Game Design and Development

Our aim is to maximize the benefit and entertainment level of our games at the same time and deliver the best experience over all traditional brain-training games. Thus, after we study closely with the science team on designing game mechanics that effectively challenge specific cognitive skills, it is time to craft these games by giving their functionality and entertainment features. At that point, our devoted engineers, game designers, game artists, and our product team carefully and deliberately worked on designing and developing our application to deliver the best experience for our users.

We are continuously working on developing special games, testing and maximizing their effectiveness.

The Contribution of Educational Games in Daily life

Educational games have become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. These games offer a range of benefits that extend beyond simply being fun and engaging. One of the primary benefits of educational games is that they can help improve cognitive skills such as memory, attention, and problem-solving. By engaging in challenging games that require critical thinking and problem-solving, players can improve their cognitive abilities and apply those skills to real-world situations.

Educational games can also help improve social skills and foster positive relationships. Games that require cooperation and teamwork, for example, can help players learn to work together effectively and communicate more efficiently with others.

In addition, educational games can be a valuable tool for improving academic performance. Games that are specifically designed to teach math, science, or language skills can help students better understand and retain complex concepts. Research has shown that educational games can be particularly effective for learning and retention of knowledge. It is found out that game-based learning was associated with an up to 20% increase in knowledge retention compared to traditional methods of learning. Moreover, they can be tailored to different learning styles and preferences. For example, visual learners may benefit from games that incorporate graphics and images, while kinesthetic learners may prefer games that involve physical movement. Educational games can be a fun and enjoyable way to learn new things and explore different topics. By incorporating elements of play and game mechanics into learning, educational games can make learning more engaging and exciting.

Apart from the learning experience, educational games provide significant contributions towards character growth. They encourage players to embrace challenges and learn from failure. By providing a safe and low-stakes environment for experimentation and exploration, games can help players develop a growth mindset that can carry over into other areas of their lives. Finally, supplementary components such as progress tracking, rewards, and achievements can help players feel a sense of accomplishment and motivation to continue playing and learning.

Overall, educational games are tools with immense potential for the personal development of children and adults alike. A potential that the contemporary science only scratched the surface of. They can help foster a lifelong love of learning and curiosity by making learning fun and enjoyable. As Witmina team we aim to tap into this potential and develop it further by creating ultimate brain training application. 

 

Can Mobile Games Contribute to Cognitive Intelligence?

Contemporary, cognitive and educational sciences have conducted numerous quantitative research on correlation between cognitive intelligence with mobile games. Although quite early to induce a conclusionary result, the findings strongly point out a positive correlation between mobile games and cognitive development.

According to a study conducted by West et al. (2015), playing action games on mobile devices can enhance cognitive skills such as attention, reaction time, and spatial cognition. Another study by Kühn et al. (2014) found that playing a puzzle game for 30 minutes a day for two months led to improvements in working memory, processing speed, and executive functions. These results suggest that mobile games can provide a platform for cognitive training and have the potential to improve cognitive abilities.

Furthermore, a systematic review conducted by Bediou et al. (2018) revealed that cognitive training through specifically designed games can lead to significant improvements in cognitive abilities, including attention, memory, and executive function. The review highlights the potential of mobile games for cognitive training, as they are easily accessible and can be played anywhere, at any time

In another instance, a study conducted by Green et al. (2014) found that playing a mobile game called "NeuroRacer" for one month led to significant improvements in cognitive control in older adults. Study by Kato and colleagues (2013) found that playing a mobile game called "Brain Age" for several weeks led to improvements in cognitive functioning in healthy adults.

Moreover, a systematic review conducted by Powers et al. (2013) found that mobile games can be effective tools for cognitive training, particularly in the domains of attention, working memory, and problem-solving. The review emphasized that mobile games can be easily accessed, fun, and engaging, making them an ideal platform for cognitive training.

In conclusion, the evidence suggests that mobile games have the potential to enhance cognitive intelligence, and can be used as a fun and accessible tool for cognitive training. Though further research is needed to determine the optimal types of mobile games for cognitive training, as well as the most effective methods for using them to promote cognitive development, we help conduct of these research and implement their outcomes in Witmina to provide a complete set of tools of cognitive development for our users.
