The How to Think Strategy Deck

Cognitive strategies students can use when learning gets difficult.

The How to Think Strategy Deck turns insights from cognitive science and educational psychology into practical strategies students can use when they get stuck—helping them organize their thinking and approach complex problems with greater confidence.

Designed by an educational psychologist and informed by research on learning, executive function, and problem solving.

Each card introduces a simple strategy learners can apply in the moment — helping them build stronger habits of focus, planning, and reflection.

What Learners Gain:

• Better focus and concentration

• Stronger recall and memory

• Better planning and study habits

• More confident, independent learners

• Repeatable strategies you can actually use

The first version of the deck is currently being refined with feedback from educators and classroom testing.
