When: December 2-3, 2024 (In Person)
Location: Manila, Philippines
Description
Executive functions are those elusive skills that we expect every student to have, yet we do not have a focused curriculum to “teach” them. It is supposed to be ready to apply to academics by the age of four, yet many students struggle to become organized, to have efficient study ethics, or the ability to inhibit their frustration to continue their work tasks.
This two-day workshop will explain the different executive functions we need to thrive in classrooms, workplaces, and social and recreational situations. We will include the influence of early childhood development, sensory processing, and its impact on learning and executive efficiency. Assessment of executive functions will include a questionnaire tool that supports assessment. Activities and techniques (sensory, motor, and developmental) are included to support adaptive functioning in classrooms as well as in social circumstances.
This workshop will be interesting for any age group, multiple diagnostic categories and the practical nature of information will leave the workshop participant feeling equipped and ready to apply the very next day.
