COGNITIVE, NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL AND LEARNING DIMENSIONS
COGNITIVE, NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL AND LEARNING DIMENSIONS
A number of operational sheets relating to this dimension are proposed here for the four areas of interest:
1. Intellectual skills, thinking, reasoning and solving tasks/problems
2. Memory and attentional skills
3. Spatial-temporal organisation
4. Learning.
Specifically, we are going to work on the aspects outlined in the table below. Although the sheets are subdivided in relation to specific areas of work, they are to be understood and used with a view to transversality, mutual complementarity and close interconnection with the main reference dimension.

The boatman must take the cabbage, the goat and the wolf to the other side of the river. If he brings them together, the goat will certainly eat the cabbage and the wolf the goat. How will the boatman be able to transport them without any problems?
