1. What are cognitive skills?
Cognitive skills are the set of abilities and functions necessary for the acquisition and processing of information, which underlie the processes of learning, memory, problem solving, attention and knowledge.
They are the ways in which the brain remembers, reasons, attracts attention, thinks, reads, and learns. Cognitive skills help a person process new information by taking it and distributing it to appropriate areas of the mind.
SoftskillLab investigates 3 different cognitive areas: attention, memory, logic, and reasoning.
You can investigate each individual area with a light Digital Escape Room or assess the whole set of cognitive skills with the full Digital Escape Room.
2. Digital escape room
Escape room is a very famous game that aims to solve some puzzles, thanks to which the leading role (i.e. the player) will reach the exit of a phantom house or building.
