During the adolescent years, the brain's highest cognitive, emotional, and creative control systems undergo profound changes. These control centers of the executive functions include: focused attention; concept understanding/memory; organization; prioritizing; motivated, goal-directed action; judgment; critical analysis; reflective (versus reactive) emotional control; and perseverance through setbacks.

These executive function skills are needed today for adolescents to thrive in school. But they are even more critical for your students after graduation when those skillsets are needed to take advantage of the best job opportunities; tackle creative problem solving in the future; engage the powers of cognitive flexibility; and face the continuing challenges of globalization and technology in the coming decades. This webinar will help you identify connections between neuroscience research and interventions that promote these skills and will provide you with strategies to cultivate your teen's cognitive, innovative, and creative minds.
