A Behavioral Approach to Language Assessment and

Intervention for Children With Autism

A Two-Day Workshop Conducted by:

Dr. Mark L. Sundberg, Ph.D Board Certified Behavior Analyst-

Doctoral

Columbia Metropolitan Convention

Center 1101 Lincoln Street

Columbia, South Carolina 29201 803-545-0001

November 10-11, 2011

8:00 am – 4:00 pm daily

The Presenter

Mark L. Sundberg, Ph.D., BCBA-D received his doctorate degree in Applied Behavior Analysis from Western Michigan University (1980), under the direction of Dr. Jack Michael. Dr. Sundberg serves on the Board of Directors of the B. F. Skinner Foundation. He is the author of the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (the VB-MAPP), and the co-author of The ABLLS; Teaching Language to Children with Autism or Other

Developmental Disabilities; and A Collection of Reprints on Verbal Behavior. He has published over 45 professional papers, including a chapter titled “Verbal Behavior” in

Cooper, Heron, & Heward (2007). He is the founder and past editor of the journal The Analysis of Verbal Behavior, a twice past-president of The Northern California Association for Behavior Analysis, a past-chair of the Publication Board of ABAI, and is a member of the committee that developed the BACB Task List. Dr. Sundberg has given over 500 conference presentations and workshops, and taught 80 college courses on behavior analysis, verbal behavior, sign language, and child development. He is a licensed psychologist in private practice who consults for programs and classrooms that serve children with autism in the San Francisco Bay Area. His awards include the 2001 “Distinguished Psychology Department Alumnus Award” from Western Michigan University.

The Workshop This two-day workshop will cover the basic elements of the verbal behavior approach to language assessment and intervention for children with autism. On the first day the focus will be on how to use a behavioral analysis of language to assess the language skills of a child with autism, as well as his potential barriers to language acquisition. Dr. Sundberg's new assessment tool "The Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP)" will be presented. Participants will then learn how to use the results of the assessment to determine an individual child's immediate intervention priorities. During the second day the focus will be developing an individualized intervention program. Several teaching procedures will be described (e.g., early mand training, vocabulary development, intraverbal development). Additional topics discussed over the course of the workshop will include how to set up a classroom for children with autism, data collection, behavior problems, augmentative communication, inclusion, and peer interaction.
