Dr. Jennifer Pusateri

Using Proactive Design to Support Executive Functions

[] In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, professors at colleges and universities all over the U.S. have noticed that students are showing greater difficulty with executive functions (EFs) than ever before. Challenges related to behaviors and skills like planning, organization, focus, and time-management are making it more and more difficult for our students, and possibly even ourselves, to keep up. In this workshop, Dr. Jennifer Pusateri will demystify the concept of executive functioning and provide practical strategies that can be used to begin supporting our students, and possibly even ourselves, right away.
