Research Study: EF Skills-Development

Beginning January 3, 2022, students in grades 7-11 at Elmwood will be participating in the Developing Executive Functions in Adolescence research project. As part of the collaboration between the Connections Lab at McGill University and Elmwood, teachers will be providing some classes with Executive Functioning skills lessons and guided feedback over eight weeks. The project is expected to positively impact student performance and engagement while also providing insight into how Executive Functioning skills can be effectively taught in classrooms. Through this initiative, Elmwood is leading the way in developing evidence-based pedagogy for improving students’ skills and outcomes– a key focus of our Strategic Direction 2021+.
