Students with special challenges are often taught organization and time-management skills, but research indicates that every student can strongly benefit from learning these skills early on. This edWebinar focuses on how learning to plan helps students build a metacognitive view of their workload, and how students with strong metacognitive skills are positioned to learn more and perform better (e.g., Wang et al., 1990).
During this edWebinar, we explore simple and effective ways educators can integrate planning skills in their curriculum and how this can help students be more aware of their workload and improve their time-management skills. Examples shown tie into executive function skills such as organization, planning, shifting, and initiating. At the end of the session, viewers have a clear set of strategies they can use in class to help students improve their metacognitive skills and foster improved executive function skills. Additionally, viewers receive a series of digital lesson plans to teach planning techniques to their students in effective 15-minute sessions they can use at their convenience.
This recorded edWebinar is of interest to middle and high school teachers, librarians, school and district leaders, education technology leaders, counselors, and learning specialists.
About the Presenter
Renaud Boisjoly is the Chief Product Officer at Studyo. After working with students and teachers in classrooms, schools, and districts for close to 25 years, focusing on driving technology adoption through pedagogical objectives, the new digital era raised the question of student agency and responsibility. Basing himself on action research on brain development and executive function skills, he built the first version of the Studyo planner which empowered students with tools to plan and break down their work. Now, Studyo also produces Today and Today for Schools to make these planning tools available to a wider audience, from individual students or teachers to schools looking for ways to enhance Google Classroom to teach executive function skills to their students.
