Chat GPT and EF Skills
While working on my website to maximize my SEO (yes, I know fancy tech acronyms…haha!), I asked the newly famous Chat GPT to “generate a keyword list based on executive functioning skills”. The point of this is to help Google deliver my website when parents are searching for what I’m offering. What the program returned was exceptional. I was immediately overwhelmed - how could I pick just a few of these to focus on? After all, Imaginative Play is beneficial for so much more than just EF skills, so I already had a dozen other ESSENTIAL keywords on my list. So I decided that while I would have to pick a few to focus on when it came to Google search results, I still wanted you to be able to see this (not exclusive) list of 25 essential skills that fall under the ‘umbrella term’ of Executive Functioning. Happy reading!
