Strategies to Boost Students’ Executive Functioning

1 hr

Executive functioning skills such as the ability to remain on task, stay focused and organized, and self‑manage are essential for success in school and beyond. Your students need guidance to develop these skills, and we’ll teach you a variety of metacognitive strategies to meet different needs.

In this webinar you’ll learn how to:

Boost growth in students’ executive functioning skills
“Avoid and Escape the Downward Spiral” through the use of metacognitive learning strategies and self‑regulation
Choose metacognitive strategies for explicit instruction based on specific categories of executive functioning
