| Abstract: | This institutional companion guide provides evidence-based protocols for academic support, advising, and student success centers. Based on the Laser Focus system, the guide addresses the challenges of cognitive overload, digital attentional capture, and academic burnout in higher education. It offers structured, non-clinical protocols--such as the "180-Second Entry" and "Error Into Data" frameworks--designed to assist students in self-regulation and intentional action. The guide translates principles from cognitive psychology and self-regulated learning (Zimmerman's model) into practical tools for academic advisors, tutors, and faculty. It emphasizes coherence, recovery, and structured action, providing a framework for "high-performance learning" without inducing additional stress or shame. This resource is intended for educational professionals seeking scalable, practical methodologies to enhance student persistence, focus, and academic resilience. |
