  • Apps to Support Executive Functioning
    Apps to support Executive Functioning Executive Functioning is the mental process that allows us to remember things, remain on task, keep tasks organized, monitor your work and performance, remain focused on tasks, keep schedules, etc. Basically many of the things most of us take for granted as we juggle most of these tasks in our head each day. However, for individuals with weak executive functioning skills life can seem disordered, plans and assignments forgotten, meetings missed and simple tasks such as remembering where to turn in an assignment...forgotten. These apps assist with various aspects, from timers that remind to move on to the next project, audio prompts along with an associated picture of what else needs to be done, to calendars, homework trackers and more. If the app is listed for iPad most also run on iPhones or iPods. Quick introduction article on Executive Functioning http://www.ldonline.org/article/29122/ - What Is Executive Functioning?
