Teaching Strategies
We create this when we break a complex task into smaller units.
What is a task analysis?
This temporarily increases or decreases the effectiveness or value of a reinforcer
What is a motivating operation?
This is generally the 1st verbal operant we learn/teach.
What is a mand?
This is a stimulus change that DECREASES the likelihood of the behavior occurring in the future.
What is punishment?
Name 3 ways to collect data.
What are frequency, rate, duration, latency, intensity, etc?
This is reinforcing closer and closer approximations of a response until the correct response is observed.
What is shaping?
This involves adding something to the environment to increase the likelihood if a behavior occurring again.
What is positive reinforcement?
This verbal operant is a label.
What is a tact?
What are escape, access, attention, and automatic?
This is a stimulus that signals the availability of reinforcement.
What is a discrimintative stimulus? (SD)
When teaching a new skill, you should use ______ to _______ prompting procedures.
What are most to least prompting procedures?
This is what has happened when behaviors occur outside of the training environment.
What is generalization?
Asking someone's age, returning a greeting, and singing a song are all types of this operant.
What are intraverbals?
This behavior reduction procedure involves withdrawing reinforcement from a previously reinforced behavior.
What is extinction?
If a teacher reinforcers a student after every 3rd correct response, he is implementing this type of reinforcement schedule.
What is a fixed ratio schedule?
Unlike discrete trial training, this teaching strategies involves a less structured, child guided teaching approaching.
What is Natural environmental teaching (NET)?
Time out is an example of this type of consequence.
This is the difference between a TFFC and a T-FFC trial.
What is the TFFC trial involves the learner providing an item given the FFC; a T-FFC involves the learner providing the FFC given the item?
If a student is engaging in a problematic behavior for attention, this is the best way to put it on extinction.
What is ignoring the behavior?
This procedure reduces a problem behavior by reinforcing a behavior that interferes (physically or functionally) with the inappropriate behavior
What is differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI)?
This is a sign that you are paired with a client.
What is when the client approaches you?
When defining behaviors, you must use ________ and ________ terms.
What are observable and measurable terms?
This is the discriminative stimulus (SD) of a mand.
What is the learner's MO?
This is removing a token after it has been earned in response to inappropriate or undesirable behavior.
What is a response cost?
This schedule of reinforcement is the best at maintaining a behavior over time.
What is a variable ratio schedule?
