Research-Based Strategies to Ignite Student Learning:TheInsights Flexibly from Neuroscience and Grouped the Classroom Classroom, Revised and Expanded Edition EDUCATION

In this comprehensive guide to flexible grouping, author Kristina J. Doubet shares a staged implementation approach that takes students from simple partner setups designed to build cooperative skills to complex structures ideal for interest and readiness-informed academic exploration.

How to Organize Learning for Equity and Growth

DOUBET

Choosing to make your classroom a flexibly grouped one means positioning every student to learn better—without feeling superior or inferior, without being overburdened or underchallenged—and to discover for themselves how much farther they can go together than they ever could alone.

IMPROVING EXECUTIVE FUNCTION SKILLS BY

MARILEE SPRENGER

From SEL to Executive Function Skills Teaching executive function (EF) skills in conjunction with social-emotional learning (SEL) is crucial for fostering cognitive, emotional, and social competencies. Together, these programs enhance students’ abilities to succeed academically, manage stress, and build meaningful relationships (Durlak et al., 2011).

SEL provides the “why” (emotional intelligence, empathy, and social responsibility), and EF provides the “how” (the mental processes to manage and apply these emotions and social understandings effectively). While SEL teaches empathy and emotional regulation, executive functions enable students to practice empathy by recalling appropriate responses, planning how to express kindness, and adapting to others’ needs (Sprenger, 2025).

ASCD PRODUCT #: QRG125037

• Self-awareness helps students identify their strengths and challenges, which connects to EF skills like planning and organization.

• Self-management gives students tools to control impulses and emotions, key for time management and impulse control.

• Social awareness helps students understand and empathize with others, supporting collaboration and adaptability in group settings.

• Relationship skills enable students to communicate effectively, resolve conflicts, and work well with others, which is essential for teamwork and leadership.

• Responsible decision making teaches students to evaluate consequences and make thoughtful choices, aligning with EF skills like problem solving and goal setting.

RED FLAGS

Benefits Beyond the Classroom Teaching EF and SEL together helps students manage stress, reduce behavioral issues, and enhance social problem solving.

Self-regulation, a key component of both, predicts better health, financial stability, and lower criminal activity. SEL programs that emphasize EF offer lasting benefits, including improved mental health, stronger relationships, and reduced substance abuse (Taylor et al., 2017).Without sufficient opportunities to build self-regulation, emotional intelligence, and executive function, children face greater challenges in school, relationships, and long-term life success. Addressing these skills early can lead to better academic, social, and emotional outcomes (Durlak et al., 2022).
