Want to keep your 12-18 year old busy over the school holidays?

Published: 24 June 2009

Does your teenager need something to do over the school holidays? Why not bring them into Monash University to get a glimpse into university life and participate in a research project looking at the development of attention.

The session lasts for around 70 minutes and involves a few computer-based and interactive exercises.

Participants must:

• be aged between 12 and 18 years old
• have corrected or normal-to-corrected vision
• not have experienced any of the following: head injury, epilepsy, disorders of attention, stroke or psychiatric disorders
• not have recently consumed medication or large amounts of caffeine that would impact on their ability to pay attention.

Venue: Any Melbourne Monash University campus
