Module 1: 

​

Lesson 1 is about unlocking the Brain's Control Center! Discover what executive function really is—and how one simple, powerful habit can transform your thinking, decision-making, and learning. In this engaging video, explore the science of “the pause” and learn how to harness it to fuel clarity, focus, and growth.

 

Lesson 2 dives into how executive function uses mental images to recall the past and activate inner speech to plan the future. You'll learn strategies to strengthen visualization and self-talk—two essential skills for improving learning, behavior, and instruction.

Lesson 3 lights a spark under student motivation by turning down the volume on self-doubt. Learners discover how to quiet their inner critic and keep challenge from tipping into frustration. With a clear picture of what “great” looks like, they build momentum by setting meaningful goals. Teachers and students use tailored diagnostic charts to uncover strengths and focus growth—so motivation isn't just a feeling, it's a strategy.

 

Lesson 4 reveals the brain’s playbook for focus: it scans for what’s interesting, emotional, or relevant, then locks in attention—and when life interrupts, it shows how to bring that focus back. With insights and strategies, learners build the agility to stay engaged, shift gears, and sharpen attention in a world full of distractions.

Lesson 5 tackles impulse control by helping students understand their “window of tolerance”—the zone where emotions stay manageable and clear thinking thrives. When stress pushes them out of that zone, they learn to spot the signs, pause, and respond with smart choices. The lesson also offers a toolbox of coping strategies—like grounding exercises and expressive outlets—to help students stay calm and move forward until real solutions are in sight.

 

Lesson 6 turns memory into a superpower. Students dive into how the brain juggles information with working memory, stores it long-term, and pulls it back when it counts. They'll unlock tricks like using visualization and chunking to make facts stick like glue. With clever strategies for organizing and connecting ideas, this lesson turns everyday studying into brain-boosting magic. Forget boring memorization—this is memory with spark.

Lesson 7 supercharges problem-solving by turning hope into action. Students learn that hope isn’t just wishful thinking—it’s built on agency (confidence and motivation) and a clear path forward. Great problem solvers break challenges into manageable goals, explore options, anticipate roadblocks, and shift strategies when needed. With brainpower and grit, this lesson helps learners tackle problems flexibly and confidently—like everyday heroes ready to make things happen.

 

Lesson 8 equips students with the tools to bring order to the chaos. It focuses on the executive functions that organize time, materials, and ideas with purpose and precision. Learners discover how to sort the essential from the noise, prioritize tasks, and sequence steps to stay on track. They also explore visual supports—like timers, graphic organizers, and charts—that help them plan efficiently, manage workloads, and turn intentions into action. It’s all about working smarter, not harder.
