Description:

Participants will spend the day learning about executive functioning and how deficits in this area can affect students. The session will focus on techniques and tools to help support students in the areas of attention, memory, time management, and organization. Special focus will be given to how attention skills develop and what educators can do to support students who are struggling with attention in the school setting. Participants will have an opportunity to reflect on the changing demands on a student’s executive functioning system in today’s classroom. Participants will make and take low-tech assistive tools for executive functioning, including visuals, folders, color coding tools, and more. High-tech tools, including Chrome extensions, iOS apps, and websites, will be demonstrated. Participants will get hands-on and collaborate s on techniques that work for a variety of student needs. Participants will leave with tools and strategies they can implement the very next day.
