What is a Schulte Grid?
A Schulte Grid is a grid of randomly distributed numbers or letters used for development of speed reading, peripheral vision, attention and visual perception. The most common version consists of a 5x5 grid with numbers from 1 to 25. The goal is to find and click the numbers in ascending order as quickly as possible, while keeping your eyes focused on the center of the grid.
