2025 Alaska Statewide Special Education Conference (ASSEC)

Executive function skills—such as planning, organization, and self-regulation—are crucial for student success, both academically and in life.  This session explores how using a universal design approach to teach these skills can benefit all learners, while also meeting the specific needs of neurodiverse students such as those with a history of traumatic brain injury. Participants will learn practical strategies to create inclusive classrooms that nurture independence, resilience, and long-term success.
