Executive Function (EF) And the SMARTS Online Curriculum:
An Interview with Dr. Lynn
Recently, I had the pleasure of conducting an in-depth interview with Dr. Lynn Meltzer (https://smarts-ef.org/about/us/) regarding the launch of her fully online Executive Function curriculum for all teachers.
Dr. Meltzer has long been known to be an international leader in the EF field and she has been at the forefront of the efforts to create programs and curriculum to support our teachers’ efforts to strengthen students’ EF skills.
SMARTS is a very intensive and thorough program that provides core help with EF skills that usually just aren’t taught in school. It’s really all about teaching students to “learn how to learn.”This is a delightful and informative interview. Be sure to listen in!
