Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a highly effective, rigorously
researched intervention for children with autism spectrum
disorders--but most teachers don't get the training they need to
put it to work in their inclusive classroom. That's why every K-12
educator needs this practical guidebook, packed with teaching plans
and plain-English guidance on using ABA to improve outcomes for
students with autism and behavior challenges.
Teachers will start with a systematic, start-to-finish guide
that demystifies the entire ABA process, from assessment and goal
setting to data collection and analysis. Then they'll get fifty
sample teaching plans that clearly demonstrate how to use ABA to
support students across social, communication, behavioral,
academic, and independent functioning domains. Ready to adapt to
the needs of individual students, these concise sample plans give
teachers specific ideas for helping children develop critical
skills such as
- participating in cooperative learning activities with
peers
- transitioning from class to class independently
- responding positively to peer initiations
- using simple sentences to make requests
- raising their hand to answer a question
- waiting for a turn during structured activities
- protesting appropriately using a calm voice and positive
language
- communicating needs using augmentative communication
- staying in line and remaining quiet
- using the restroom without adult support
Using concrete examples every teacher can relate to, the teaching
plans show how to get results using a combination of effective ABA
strategies, such as explicit instruction, positive reinforcement,
prompting and fading procedures, video modeling, peer-mediated
interventions, social stories, and self-monitoring tools. Teachers
will also get helpful guidance on developing their own ABA teaching
plans to resolve their students' classroom challenges.
With this much-needed blueprint for "quick and painless" ABA,
teachers will have research-proven strategies for effectively
meeting the needs of children with autism spectrum disorders--and
ensuring the best possible learning environment for all their
students.
