Class Experience

This class is all about working memory and the ADHD brain. It hopes to give learners a better understanding of how their brains work and give them tools to help them improve their working memory.

The class will outline exactly what working memory is and explain the impairments in working memory for people with ADHD. 
Students will learn 
-When we use working memory
- When working memory is most difficult for people with ADHD
- Why working memory is impaired in people with ADHD

The class will teach learners about how working memory impairments apply to them individually and teach them tools to navigate the challenges.
Students will
- Reflect on situations when their working memory causes them challenges
- Discuss various tools to help them better face these challenges.

Students will learn how to improve their working memory through exercising their brain.
Students will
- Learn about how to exercise the brain
- Get to participate in some working memory activities to help exercise their brain

This is a super fun and engaging class that requires class discussion as well as participation in various activities through answering questions. I am able to connect with learners about their experiences with ADHD as I, myself also have it. Because of this I understand the struggles first hand and hope to be able to share the tools that I have learned throughout my life. I believe that ADHD can be a superpower but one must first learn about it to understand themselves.

Learning Goals

Learners will learn
- about what working memory is and how it is different in the ADHD brain
- how working memory impairments affect them in their own lives
-tools to help them navigate working memory challenges
-how to exercise their brain to improve their working memory
