In this work we have prepared training tools for people having disorder in divided attention and carried out training. out of the tools has 4×4 cells displaying 1-16 digits and another one has digits of 1-24 scattered in the screen, the training tasks are to click the numbers in order, we also prepend the similar tools which have both digits and hiragana characters, and these tools simulate well-known trail making test. The time ended to finish the tasks and the errors decreased for all participants through training. The other training is to repel the balls moving up and down at left and right ends of the screen by clicking the left and right mouse button, respectively. Each participants exhibited improvement in the number of success hits. It is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of our tools by testing the improvements in operating cascading menu or text entry/correction in which we had observed some difficulty due to the lack of divided attention.
