DESCRIPTION

• Executive Functions (EFs) are higher-level cognitive processes involved in inhibition of thought, action, and emotion (including self-regulation, task initiation, task organization and planning, cognitive flexibility, working memory, and recall). Students with language, reading, and writing disorders present with concomitant executive function deficits which can adversely affect their academic functioning and social outcomes.

• This webinar is aimed at increasing participants’ knowledge regarding how to provide effective evidence-based practice (EBP) language and literacy interventions aimed at improving executive functioning in children with language and literacy deficits. It will discuss current controversies related to executive functions interventions, outline available research on executive function abilities on children with developmental language disorder (DLD) and neurodevelopmental conditions(ADHD, ASD, SLD, etc.) as well as directly connect that research to best practices in functional EFs interventions in the areas of oral language and literacy for optimization of academic and social outcomes of struggling learners.

At the end of this webinar participants will be able to:

1. Describe executive functions (EFs) models and discuss the current research on the role of executive functions in language and literacy (reading, spelling, and writing) acquisition

2. Discuss a variety of EFs difficulties displayed by children with DLD and reading and writing disorders

3. List EBP language and literacy-based interventions aimed at improving executive functions in school-aged children
