Abstract
Mobile computing devices are ideally suited to collect real-time assessment of working memory among large groups of students in authentic educational settings. We examined the test-retest reliability and predictive validity (for mathematics achievement) of CandySpan- a free digital game used to assess forward, backward, and total memory span.
