Critical for college and career readiness is our students’ personal abilities to appropriately manage their affect, behaviors, and cognition (ABCs). Self-regulation for learning is the ability to effectively balance the ABCs to pursue worthy academic goals. Students who under-perform, struggle to achieve or selectively produce may lack the coordination between their feelings (affect), essential learning strategies (behaviors) and meta-cognitive thought processes (cognition). During this keynote to you will learn a holistic approach to assisting all students (from special education to gifted education) in gaining greater social/emotional well-being, developing scholarly behaviors and acquiring valuable thinking tools to be successful in school and beyond.
