We got tired of executive functioning feeling like some ephemeral concept so we decided to reach out to someone who wrote a book on the subject, Dr. Adel Najdowski to demystify the term. Besides getting a great behavioral definition of executive functioning, we also get a whole boatload of tips on how to teach these very important skills. We're pretty sure this episode is so fun, you won't have to worry about maintaining focus! PRODUCTION NOTE: Due to some wonky technical problems, this episode has a few choppy bits in the audio. It doesn't spoil any of the content, but we wanted to give you the heads-up so you were prepared. Articles discussed this episode: Najdowski, A.C. (2017). Flexible and focused.
