In this course George McCloskey—widely admired for the clarit y, comprehensiveness, and warmth of his teaching style—will help participan ts gain a deeper understanding of executive functions and of the ways execu tive-function deficits impact the behavior and academic performance of chil dren and adolescents. Participants will gain state-of-the-art knowledge of how to identify executive function strengths and weaknesses and the most ef fective ways to help children and adolescents improve their use of executiv e functions. Ways to discuss executive functions with children, parents and school staff will be offered as well as ways to help motivate adolescents to ensure their full participation in efforts to help them. Special emphasi s will be placed on how to orient students to intervention efforts and help them move from being externally controlled to internally self-regulated th rough the use of bridging strategies. Case study examples of assessment and intervention efforts and outcomes with children and adolescents will be di scussed throughout the presentation. Participants will leave this workshop energized and with a renewed sense of purpose, a greater knowledge of how t o improve executive functions, and a greater realization of how they can ha ve a positive effect on the children, parents and professionals with whom t hey work.
