Helping schoolchildren use planning skills more easily
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial focuses on improving “executive functions,” which are skills like planning, paying attention, and following through, to support learning in everyday school. It is for young children in regular kindergarten or elementary classes, and it excludes children with learning or brain/mental health conditions.
