Book Effects of Video Prompting Via an IPad on Vocational Skill Development of Secondary Students with Autism

Download or read book Effects of Video Prompting Via an IPad on Vocational Skill Development of Secondary Students with Autism written by Patricia D. Lund and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current laws stress the importance of using research-based practices to teach transition and vocational skills to students with disabilities. Some of the evidence-based practices include the use of videos to prompt students through a task. Much research has been done concerning the effectiveness of video prompts to teach daily living skills, academic skills and social skills. Transitional skills that have been taught often include simple, entry level skills such as watering plants, cooking soup in the microwave or setting a table. To date, there is little research regarding the use of video prompts to teach complex employment skills that can help students reach competitive employment. The current research attempts to study the effectiveness of video prompting using a multiple baseline ABA research design. Participants included two high school studentswith autism. Both students were taught how to use woodworking tools to make a key rack. Independent task completion and quality check scores were analyzed and graphed. Both students showed an increase in the number of skills they could perform independently and the overall quality of their work from baseline to intervention. One student was able to maintain the skills after the video prompts were moved. The other student showed a slight decrease in scores after the intervention was removed. Future studies should seek to replicate the study in order to determine a functional relationship between video prompting and independent vocational task completion.

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 Behavior Analysis and Learning

Download or read book Behavior Analysis and Learning written by Erin B. Rasmussen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a behavioral perspective, Behavior Analysis and Learning provides an advanced introduction to the principles of behavior analysis and learned behaviors, covering a full range of principles from basic respondent and operant conditioning through applied behavior analysis into cultural design. The text uses Darwinian, neurophysiological, and biological theories and research to inform B. F. Skinner’s philosophy of radical behaviorism. The seventh edition expands the focus on neurophysiological mechanisms and their relation to the experimental analysis of behavior, providing updated studies and references to reflect current expansions and changes in the field of behavior analysis. By bringing together ideas from behavior analysis, neuroscience, epigenetics, and culture under a selectionist framework, the text facilitates understanding of behavior at environmental, genetic, neurophysiological, and sociocultural levels. This "grand synthesis" of behavior, neuroscience, and neurobiology roots behavior firmly in biology. The text includes special sections, "New Directions," "Focus On," "Note On," "On the Applied Side," and "Advanced Section," which enhance student learning and provide greater insight on specific topics. This edition was also updated for more inclusive language and representation of people and research across race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity, and neurodiversity. Behavior Analysis and Learning is a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in psychology or other behavior-based disciplines, especially behavioral neuroscience.

Download or read book Behavior Analysis and Learning written by W. David Pierce and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 881 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavior Analysis and Learning, Fifth Edition is an essential textbook covering the basic principles in the field of behavior analysis and learned behaviors, as pioneered by B. F. Skinner. The textbook provides an advanced introduction to operant conditioning from a very consistent Skinnerian perspective. It covers a range of principles from basic respondent and operant conditioning through applied behavior analysis into cultural design. Elaborating on Darwinian components and biological connections with behavior, the book treats the topic from a consistent worldview of selectionism. The functional relations between the organism and the environment are described, and their application in accounting for old behavior and generating new behavior is illustrated. Expanding on concepts of past editions, the fifth edition provides updated coverage of recent literature and the latest findings. There is increased inclusion of biological and neuroscience material, as well as more data correlating behavior with neurological and genetic factors. The chapter on verbal behavior is expanded to include new research on stimulus equivalence and naming; there is also a more detailed and updated analysis of learning by imitation and its possible links to mirror neurons. In the chapter on applied behavior analysis (ABA), new emphasis is given to contingency management of addiction, applications to education, ABA and autism, and prevention and treatment of health-related problems. The material presented in this book provides the reader with the best available foundation in behavior science and is a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in psychology or other behavior-based disciplines. In addition, a website of supplemental resources for instructors and students makes this new edition even more accessible and student-friendly (www.psypress.com/u/pierce).

Book Effects of Self directed Video Prompting Using IPads on the Vocational Task Completion of Young Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book Effects of Self directed Video Prompting Using IPads on the Vocational Task Completion of Young Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities written by Jennifer Marie Cullen and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities struggle to find integrated employment because of their challenges with vocational task acquisition and completion. In this study, self-directed video prompting on iPads was used with three male participants with intellectual and developmental disabilities. A multiple probe across tasks design was used to determine the effects of the intervention on the accuracy of vocational task acquisition in integrated employment settings. Prior to intervention with self-directed video prompting in the integrated employment setting, a multiple probe across participants design was used to determine the effects of a training package for teaching iPad usage consisting of modeling and least-to-most prompting on a training task. All three participants acquired device usage in two to five trials. The participants all acquired three vocational tasks in the course of the study and demonstrated generalization to new materials, settings, or people in two of their three tasks.

Book The Use of Video Prompting Via an Ipad   and a System of Least to Most Prompting to Teach Individuals with Moderate Intellectual Disabilities the Vocational Task of Rolling Silverware

Download or read book The Use of Video Prompting Via an Ipad and a System of Least to Most Prompting to Teach Individuals with Moderate Intellectual Disabilities the Vocational Task of Rolling Silverware written by Kelly Williams and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quantitative study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of video prompting delivered via an iPad® in combination with a system of least-to-most prompting to teach individuals with intellectual disabilities the vocational task of rolling silverware. A single subject, multiple probe research design was used to determine whether there was a functional relationship between the use of video prompting and a system of least-to-most prompting and video prompting alone and the percentage of steps completed correctly in the task of rolling silverware. The findings from this study support the use of video prompting delivered via an iPad® to increase the correct independent responding of individuals with moderate intellectual disabilities on the vocational task of rolling silverware. Additionally, findings support the pairing of a system of least-to-most prompting with video prompting. This study showed that although both were effective, using the system of least-to-most prompting in conjunction with video prompting resulted in acquisition of skills in fewer trials than video prompting alone.

Book Using Video Prompting to Teach Math Skills to Adolescent Students with Specific Learning Disabilities  SLD  Via IPad

Download or read book Using Video Prompting to Teach Math Skills to Adolescent Students with Specific Learning Disabilities SLD Via IPad written by Sean E. Edwards and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A plethora of research exists suggesting video-based interventions such as video modeling (VM) and video prompting (VP) assist students with severe/profound disabilities, such as autism and intellectual disabilities, to learn academic skills. This study used a single subject multiple-baseline-across-subjects design to evaluate if a VP intervention on a functional, academic math skill had similar effects for adolescent students with mild/moderate specific learning disabilities (SLD). Five high school students (three female and two male) aged 16-17 viewed the video on an iPad to find out about how much money an item would cost if it were a certain percentage on sale. A functional relationship between the intervention and acquisition of the steps necessary to complete the task was discovered. In addition, some students maintained the skills as demonstrated by correctly answering most given word problems when given a post-test. Implications for practice and further research are discussed.

Book Effects of Video based Instruction Using Graduated Guidance on Daily Living Skill Acquisition for Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Download or read book Effects of Video based Instruction Using Graduated Guidance on Daily Living Skill Acquisition for Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder written by Stephanie Gardner and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being able to perform life skills with independence plays a critical role in the successful inclusion of individuals with autism spectrum disorders in the community and workplace environments. Daily living tasks can be successfully taught using a variety of instructional methods, including video-based instruction. This study investigated the effectiveness of a video-based instruction package including video priming and prompting along with a graduated guidance error correction procedure to teach dish washing skills to four adolescents with autism. A multiple baseline across participants design demonstrated that three out of four participants acquired dish washing skills upon introduction of the intervention. In addition, two participants were able to generalize their performance to two novel settings and maintain their skills for up to three weeks post intervention. Future research should further explore the efficacy of error correction procedures used with video prompting and the impact that these procedures have on student learning and skill retention.

Book Effects of Self directed Video Prompting on Vocational Task Acquisition

Download or read book Effects of Self directed Video Prompting on Vocational Task Acquisition written by Amy E. Heider and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient vocational skills instruction is needed to meet the needs of a growing number of job-seekers with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This study examines the effects of self-directed video prompting used to teach transition-age students with IDD chained vocational tasks. A multiple baseline design across behaviors was replicated across two participants. Both participants mastered iPhone navigation after observing a model and completing 2–3 sessions in a training phase. After training, students independently navigated the iPhone and played video prompts. Both students made substantial progress on all three tasks, reaching 100% accuracy in two of the tasks. Students were given the opportunity to self-fade in maintenance sessions following mastery of all three tasks.

Download or read book A Comparison of the Effects of Video Prompting with and Without Error Correction on Vocational Skill Acquisition for Individuals with Moderate to Profound Intellectual Disabilities written by Jamie M. O'Rourke and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Video prompting has been demonstrated to be an effective method of teaching new skills to individuals with intellectual disabilities. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of using video prompting with or without error correction delivered via an Apple iPod Touch on the acquisition of vocational tasks for three individuals with intellectual disabilities. The participants were selected through teacher nomination and the two targeted vocational tasks were determined based upon equivalence of difficulty and teacher suggestion. The tasks selected were dust mopping and wet mopping. Both tasks required the use of standard janitorial equipment and were performed within the hallways of the participants' school. A multiple probe combined with an adapted alternating treatments design was used to assess the level of skill acquisition for each of the two tasks. Results showed that for two participants, the acquisition of skills was equal under both conditions, and was slightly better in the absence of the error correction procedure for the remaining participant.
