Book Applying Video based Instruction on Employment Skill Acquisition Among Secondary Students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book Applying Video based Instruction on Employment Skill Acquisition Among Secondary Students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities written by Xiaoning Sun (Ph. D. in special education) and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores the theme of applying video-based instruction on employment skill acquisition among secondary students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). It consists of an introduction, three stand-alone papers, and a research statement. Chapter 1 presents the overview of the current competitive integrated environment (CIE) among individuals with IDD and video-based instruction which lays a foundation for the development of Chapters 2 and 3. Chapter 2 presents a literature review on the efficacy of VBI on employment skill acquisition of secondary students with IDD. Chapter 3 extends this literature by describing an experimental analysis of self-directed video prompting on vocational skills. Chapter 4 is a practitioner paper that maps a framework for preparing and implementing self-directed video prompting. Chapter 5 provides a research statement that discusses how my project findings fit in with the current literature and how my future research will contribute to promoting CIE of individuals with IDD.

Book Using Self directed Video Prompting for Skill Acquisition with Post secondary Students with Intellectual Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book Using Self directed Video Prompting for Skill Acquisition with Post secondary Students with Intellectual Developmental Disabilities written by Eliseo Dave Jimenez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation contains three stand-alone papers on the topic of using video prompting and self-directed video prompting to teach individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The literature review examined the current body of literature to better understand if and how video prompting was being utilized with individuals with moderate to profound disabilities. Additionally, maintenance and generalization measures were examined to determine the extent to which each was being utilized and measured. Overall, there were positive results for the use of video prompting as a stand-alone procedure and as a packaged intervention. Additionally, there were positive results for the studies that included maintenance and/or generalization measures. Using the information from the literature review, the research paper presents a study that taught two individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities vocational and daily living skills using self-directed video prompting. Following task mastery, maintenance probes were conducted for 2 weeks starting 1-week post-mastery. Results showed that both students acquired novel skills across all three tiers, indicating that individuals can acquire novel tasks with minimal prompting with self-directed video prompting. The third paper is a practitioner paper that teachers and other practitioners can use to teach their students how to independently provide their own video prompts and how they can promote generalization after students have learned self-directed video prompting.

Book Using Self directed Video Prompting to Teach Vocational Skills to Transition Age Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intellectual Disabilities

Download or read book Using Self directed Video Prompting to Teach Vocational Skills to Transition Age Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intellectual Disabilities written by Irene Trinette Jones and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employment is an influential factor in the quality of life for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (Lewis, 2011), but securing and maintaining gainful employment is difficult. According to the U. S. Department of Labor (2013), the rate of employment for individuals with a disability was 30% while the rate of employment for those without a disability was 76%. According to the American Community Survey (2011), the percentage of working-age people with an intellectual disability working full-time/full year was only 11% (Erickson, Lee, & von Schrader, 2012). Kaye and colleagues (2011) found that employers are reluctant to hire and retain workers with disabilities due in part to the cost of accommodations, need for supervision, the lack of skills, and the ability to perform a quality job. The importance of improving the vocational skills of students with disabilities has been highlighted in the provision of Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) which stipulates the use of scientifically-based practices to address skill deficits during transition planning. A step toward achieving these transition goals has come from the use of visually-based technology. Existing research suggests individuals with disabilities can benefit from vocational training delivered via affordable assistive technology (Furrnis et al., 2001). Commercially available handheld touch screen technology has the potential to reduce employers’ cost of providing accommodations by equipping workers with tools designed to teach them vocational skills, thereby enabling them to produce and maintain high quality performance with minimal need for direct supervision. This research examined the use of self-directed video prompting (SDVP) strategies to increase the acquisition of vocational skills for transition-age individuals with autism and mild intellectual disabilities through the use of a multiple probe across tasks design replicated across four participants. The results indicate all four participants acquired and maintained novel vocational skills, independently operated a handheld device from beginning-to-end, and transferred prompt dependence from the trainer to a handheld device. Results further showed that all participants assessed 10-weeks after the cessation of the intervention phase successfully generalize newly acquired skills to untrained settings and materials at 100% accuracy.

Book The Use of Video based Instruction to Teach Life Skills to Individuals with Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book The Use of Video based Instruction to Teach Life Skills to Individuals with Developmental Disabilities written by Kori Paige Esplin and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individuals with developmental disabilities struggle to learn important life skills. This deficit impedes their ability to function in the community and live meaningful lives. Video prompting (VP) is an evidence-based practice that has been used to teach a wide variety of skills to individuals with disabilities. VP utilizes technology to create step-by-step videos to teach academic, social, vocational and other life skills This article extends the current literature on VP interventions to hygiene skills and investigates the efficacy, skill maintenance, social validity, and level of independence that can be achieved using VP to teach hygiene skills. Three participants with developmental disabilities were selected from a junior high school and were given a video prompting intervention on an iPad to improve hygiene skills. Hygiene skills that were taught included teeth brushing, teeth flossing, face washing and basic eye makeup application. All three participants reached and maintained mastery in each of their target skills. Social validity data indicated that using iPad delivered VP interventions was socially acceptable for teaching some hygiene skills. Not every participant was able to access the VP intervention completely independently. VP interventions are a viable option for teaching these crucial life skills to individuals with developmental disabilities.

Key features include: Comprehensive Coverage—Fifty-seven chapters cover all aspects of special education in the United States including cultural and international comparisons. Issues & Trends—In addition to synthesizing empirical findings and providing a critical analysis of the status and direction of current research, chapter authors discuss issues related to practice and reflect on trends in thinking. Categorical Chapters—In order to provide a comprehensive and comparative treatment of the twelve categorical chapters in section IV, chapter authors were asked to follow a consistent outline: Definition, Causal Factors, Identification, Behavioral Characteristics, Assessment, Educational Programming, and Trends and Issues. Expertise—Edited by two of the most accomplished scholars in special education, chapter authors include a carefully chosen mixture of established and rising young stars in the field. This book is an appropriate reference volume for anyone (researchers, scholars, graduate students, practitioners, policy makers, and parents) interested in the state of special education today: its research base, current issues and practices, and future trends.
