#83: The Transition to College and the Impact of Executive Function

Executive Function Brain Trainer Podcast

In this episode of The Executive Function Braintrainer Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Dr. Erica Warren explore the crucial transition from high school to college and its impact on executive functions. They discuss the importance of planning, organization, and independence, comparing approaches in the UK and the US. Using the metaphor of a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis, they emphasize the need for students to develop their executive skills to navigate the challenges of college life effectively. Practical strategies, tools like Shovel and ivvi, and tips for parents and educators to support this transition are also discussed to help students build a solid foundation for success.
