Abstract
ADHD is not a simple hyperactivity, nor a behavior disorder. It is a brain disorder that affects students芒�?�? executive functions. Executive functions proved to have an enormous impact on memory, awareness of time, being organized, getting started and following direction. Would these skills be a better predictor of academic success than IQ scores? Are executive functions the new IQ? What are these skills that ensure school success and impact learning and behavior? How to recognize these skills? How do all these skills enable an individual to effectively create a goal, form a plan, and self-monitor through tasks? In this session, we芒�?�?ll try to identify how EF deficits are impacting ADHD students芒�?�? ability to successfully use classroom learning and what are the accommodations and strategies teachers may use to enhance them.Biography
