Supporting Executive Functioning in College Courses with QM Standards

To succeed in college and beyond, students must learn to think critically, make the right decisions, and regulate their behavior. These aspects of cognition depend on executive functioning (EF) - central processes executed in the frontal lobe of the brain. Together we will explore how to use Quality Matters (QM) Standards to create courses that effectively support EF. ­­You will learn about strategies and technology tools that can support EF in face-to-face or online college courses.
