All learning is neuroplastic: our brains are constantly adapting, growing and responding to feedback. This is true, and though, what we are talking about here is intentional and significant neuroplastic change targeted to specific cognitive functions.

Executive function — the cognitive processes that help us plan, make decisions, and regulate our behavior — is critical to academic success. Yet these skills often go underdeveloped in traditional education systems. By integrating cognitive training into the curriculum, schools are helping students develop stronger executive function skills and prepare them for lifelong success. #ExecutiveFunction #CognitiveDevelopment #StudentSuccess #EducationLeadership

But how are they learned? Civility is not just about adhering to social norms; it involves complex brain functions related to self-regulation, empathy, communication, and decision-making.

It can also be a time for students to reflect on their learning journey. #GrowthMindset #Reflection #NewYearGoals #StudentSuccess #Neuroplasticity
