Executive Functioning & Time Management
This course explores how neurodiversity impacts executive functioning and time management, providing practical strategies to support neurodivergent individuals in navigating these essential skills. Designed for educators, parents, students, and professionals, this course offers insights into how neurodiverse brains—those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and other cognitive variations—process tasks, manage time, and approach organization differently.
Through interactive modules, participants will develop a nuanced understanding of executive functions, such as working memory, self-control, and cognitive flexibility, and how these processes can be harnessed to benefit neurodivergent individuals. Each session combines research-based insights with real-world strategies that can be adapted to various settings, from the classroom to the workplace. Topics include personalized goal-setting, developing effective routines, managing task transitions, and using assistive tools and technology to enhance productivity.
By the end of the course, participants will gain a toolkit of techniques and an empathetic framework to better support neurodiverse individuals in achieving their goals, reducing stress, and building confidence in their ability to manage time and tasks effectively. Whether you are a neurodiverse individual seeking self-management strategies or a caregiver or educator looking to offer better support, this course will equip you with actionable approaches to foster success and independence.
