A brain development apparatus and method is provided for achieving self-control to achieve a brain wave state suitable for learning, a sustained concentrated mental state, a positive way of thinking and activation of physical functions by using measurements of a brain wave and a multimedia function of a computer. The brain development apparatus using brain wave biofeedback, includes a brain wave signal receiver, a feedback signal generator and a feedback signal output unit. The brain wave signal receiver receives a brain wave signal which has been measured by an external brain wave measuring device. The feedback signal generator extracts a brain wave parameter from the brain wave signal which is received by the brain wave signal receiver, compares the brain wave parameter with a reference brain wave parameter, and generates a feedback signal corresponding to the difference between the two parameters. The feedback signal output unit outputs the feedback signal which is generated by the feedback signal generator. Different feedback is provided to a user according to the user's inherent brain wave and the state of a current brain vave, thereby inducing a desirable state in brain development and allowing the user to understand his/her state.
