What can be done
to support those

WMM and STM?
Classroom
interventions
(reduce memory
load) – how do
they work in
regards to WMM
and/or STM can
they help – Yes?
No?
Computer
interventions
NNN-back)? how
do they work in
regards to WMM
and/or STM can
they help? Yes?
No?
Support –
Baddeley/Holmes
WMM – class

universal vs is it
nor universal)

low?
Is it appropriate
to apply results
from a study
using 11-12 year
