What parts of the brain do we use when we attend?

When speaking at the University of California's MIND Institute, Distinguished Lecturer Dr. Catherine Fassbender identified specific areas of the brain used when attending. I have developed 3 corresponding tasks that can be done during IM and have begun using them experimentally with some of my students enrolled in their second session. If, after viewing her presentation, you are interested in your child doing these particular tasks with me, let's talk. I am still in the experimental stage of using these, but I think they should be good.
