Online Teaching Tip—Supporting Working Memory

In this short video, Dr. Rick Bryck discusses a few tips and techniques for supporting working memory, an integral part of executive function, in the classroom. Note, this video was originally recorded as part of a presentation to faculty in our Online Dual Enrollment program, as a resource for helping them think about best practices for delivering content with minimal cognitive load.

If you’d like to learn more about executive function, working memory, cognitive load, and strategies for helping students, take a look at our webinars and/or online certificate program for educators, with a specialization in executive function.
