After you have determined where those skills can be met, conduct an ecological inventory of:
Environments: (e.g., High school classes) Sub-environment: (e.g., Consumer math) Activities: (e.g., work problems in text, lecture,
computer simulations, group projects, etc.) Natural supports available: (e.g., computer for
each student, teacher gives 1:1 feedback Target Skills: (e.g., number recognition, use of
calculator)

Skills in Need of Instruction
![Page 11: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Teaching Teaching is the process of arranging
instructional stimuli that result in behavior change for the learner.
Teaching requires the establishment of a learning context.
Teaching requires behavior change on the part of the learner.
Teaching students to respond to specific stimuli is a teacher’s basic job.
![Page 14: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do I achieve stimulus control (teaching)?
Associate correct response with antecedent stimuli.
Differently reinforce responding in presence of antecedent stimuli. Give positive reinforcement for correct
responding Withhold positive reinforcement for incorrect
responding (extinction)
![Page 15: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Stimulus Control
Stimulus control refers to change in the likelihood of a response when a stimulus is presented. The stimulus is a signal that if the response
is performed, a predictable outcome (consequence) is likely.
If a person responds one way in the presence of a stimulus and another in its absence, than that stimulus is said to “control” behavior.
A traffic light is an example
![Page 16: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Stimulus control and teaching For any skill, teach a) what, b) when, c)
why. What = the new response (skill) When = the stimulus that signals when to
perform the new response Why = what is the likely consequence
(reward)
![Page 17: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Teaching and Stimulus Control
Define the naturally occurring pattern Setting Event -> Stimulus -> Response -> Consequence
Define what you will “add” to assist learning.
Setting Event -> Stimulus -> Response -> Consequence Prompt Extra Reward or Correction
![Page 18: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How to develop stimulus control(Note what you ADD to the natural context)
Begin by pretest, then defining (a) the new response[R], (b) the stimulus that should control the response[S1], and (c) the natural reward [Sr+].
Pretest to document absence of Sd R Present the stimulus (S1) Prompt the new response (R) Deliver a reward (Sr+) + extra reward Withhold the reward when either
R1 occurs when S1 has not be presented, or R1 does not occur when S1 is presented.
![Page 19: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Stimulus control and teaching For any skill, teach a) what, b) when, c)
why. What = the new response (skill) When = the stimulus that signals when to
perform the new response Why = what is the likely consequence
(reward)
![Page 20: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Building Stimulus Control Teach saying “thank you” when
someone gives you something. Test to determine if skill exists Identify “pre-requisites” Define “natural” behavioral elements
receive --> “thank you” --> “you’re welcome” What do you add to teach
Add prompt (“say thank you”) Add reward (“excellent job saying thank you”)
Multiple opportunities to practice (fade extras)
Test to determine if skill is learned
![Page 21: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Teaching and Stimulus Control: Examples Setting Event -> Stimulus -> Response->
Consequence
None-> “car”-> /car/-> info from reading
What do you add?
![Page 22: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ConsequencesSetting Event -> Stimulus -> Response -> Consequence (Contingency)
Consequences follow a target response Contingent consequences are delivered
only after the target response occurs. Consequences affect the future likelihood
of the response. Rewarding consequences increase the
likelihood of the target response. Aversive consequences decrease the likelihood
of the target response.
![Page 23: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Consequences
There are 5 major classes of consequences
Positive reinforcement Negative reinforcement Positive punishment Negative punishment Extinction
To determine the type/class of consequence: Examine the effect on future occurrence of
the behavior (increase or decrease?) Examine the action involved in the
consequence (give/remove/withhold)
![Page 24: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

ConsequencesExamples
Define the target response Define the consequence Define the effect on future occurrence of
the behavior. Define the type of action involved in the
consequence (give, remove). Define the behavioral principle
demonstrated
![Page 26: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ConsequencesExamples (target response is underlined)
Over time, Darin (age 5) has become more likely to line up when given the instruction “time to line up” as a result of contingent praise from Ms. Dawson when he lines up.
Darin screamed, and Ms. Dawson said “Darin you be quiet.” He immediately stopped screaming and smiled. Over time, however, his rate of screaming in class has increased.
![Page 27: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
ConsequencesExamples (target response is underlined)
Over time Ellen’s talking out in class decreased during instructional presentations as a result of everyone ignoring her talk-outs (previously she received a lot of peer attention).
Over time Ellen has become more on task during independent seat work periods since Mr. Evan’s started giving out “Worker Rewards” for students who were on-task.
![Page 28: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
ConsequencesExamples (target response is underlined)
Over time Jim (age 9) has become less likely to push his way to the front of the line during recess since the teachers took away recess time for each instance of pushing.
Elaine volunteered answers in class when the teacher asked for volunteers, but about 25% of the time she would be wrong, and the teacher would scowl and tell her she was wrong. She now volunteers less often.
![Page 29: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
ConsequencesExamples (target response is underlined)
Over time Elaine was more likely to scream when given a math assignment as a result of the assignment being removed as soon as she screamed.
Tyron became more likely to become quiet, look down and whimper when other children would talk to him as a result of other children leaving him alone when he engaged in these behaviors.
![Page 30: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
ConsequencesExamples (target response is underlined)
Gwen’s attendance at choir has decreased as a result of Ms. Emerson’s repeated congratulations on Gwen’s “wonderful voice.”
Eric (age 8) has become more likely to tease and taunt Angelissa even though Angelissa consistently hits or yells at Eric when he teases her.
![Page 31: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Effective Instruction:We Must Determine the Nature of the Problem
1 Behavior not in repertoire of student-SKILL DEFICIT Teach HOW
2 Student can do behavior but does not -PERFORANCE DEFICIT teach WHEN & WHY
Does the student not know how or do they know how but choose not to?

Teaching Applications: Prompts Defined:
Any antecedent stimulus ADDED to the presentation that increases the likelihood of correct responding.
Examples: Verbal, gesture, physical, embedded (visual,
auditory) Modeling Precorrection

What makes a good prompt? Increases likelihood of correct responding Focuses attention on relevant features of task (Sd) Ease of delivery Ease of removal across trials Good prompts are determined by the demands of the
task AND the presenting skills of the learner. As weak as possible (least intrusive) Should be faded as rapidly as possible
![Page 39: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Prompt Examples:What prompts might be useful? Natural Sd Target Behavior Consequence (Prompt)
Teaching cursive writing. Teaching swallowing when too much saliva in mouth. Teaching Carl how to ask to enter a wall ball game. Teaching Emily to move from one task to another
without help. Teaching Phil to wait at snack without grabbing food.

Teaching Applications:Fading Defined: Stimulus Fading
The gradual reduction or removal of a prompt. Fading is a process for transferring stimulus control.
Examples: Change in physical features (dashed lines) Change in specificity of verbal prompts (“pick up the
screwdriver”…to… “what’s next”) Time delay (“Prompt+Sd”….to… “Prompt….Sd”)
![Page 42: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Establishing Stimulus Control Time delay:
begin with a prompt that works and then increase the DELAY between presentation of the target stimulus and the added prompt fixed Progressive
Sd +Prompt response Sd ….Prompt response Sd ….response
![Page 43: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Fading Prompts Increasing Assistance (Least-to-Most Prompts)—start with
least intrusive and add more intrusive if necessary.
Graduated Guidance (Hand-over-hand, physical guidance)—reducing full guidance to “shadowing”.
Time Delay—wait several seconds before prompting to allow student to respond.
Decreasing Assistance (Most-to-Least Prompts)—move to less intrusive prompt when behavior occurs reliably
![Page 44: Week 3: Assessing & Teaching Functional Skills. Updates/Agenda On Wed. for Functional Curriculum: Article Review #1 is Due. Next Week April 18 th, Two.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d9d5503460f94a86e86/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
How would you fade these prompts? Verbal prompt “move it to the tens” during two digit
addition to prompt carrying. Verbal prompt “ask nicely” when prompting Elsie to
ask for toys/food, etc. Physical prompt “touch on arm” as student points to
communication board. Gesture prompt, pointing to the correct color when
asked to touch “yellow, etc” Embedded prompt, dashed lines for writing

Teaching Applications:Shaping Defined
Teaching new behaviors through differential reinforcement of successive approximations of correct responding.
Differential reinforcement for shaping means that responses that meet a certain criterion are reinforced, while those that do not meet the criterion are not.
The Sd and reward are constant. What changes is the rule for delivering the reward. The goal is to improve the precision of the new skill.

Establishing Stimulus Control: Teaching New BehaviorsShaping:
Students learn new things when a teacher “shapes” an existing response into the desired behavior.
Advantages of shaping: faster than waiting for a correct response learner succeeds at a high rate still kind of slow because you are waiting for the
learner

Designing Successful Shaping Programs Identify the terminal behavior (end result) Identify the initial behavior Identify intermediate behaviors Determine the size of steps toward the
goal Reinforce successive approximations of
the behavior Monitor progress

Shaping Example Problem behavior: Students are off-task about
80% of the time when working with a partner. Off-topic conversation occurs and work is not completed.
Define the terminal behavior.
Define the initial behavior.
What will our “successive approximations” be?

Shaping:How would you use shaping to.. Develop skill of saying “thank you” (in different
ways) to peers.
Develop skill of reading ninth grade material at 150 words correct per minute.
Develop ability of a 14 year old to stay in PE class for 10 min without screaming.

Chaining A procedure to teach complex skills.
Reinforce combinations of simple behaviors so they become an integrated, whole.
Based on “task analysis” logic
Requires a “task” that is organized into a sequence of “responses.” Each of the responses serves as a “link” in “chain of behavior”
Main idea The reward at the end of a chain will maintain all the other
responses in the chain. The goal is to teach that each step has an Sd-> R. Each R generates a new Sd until the final step which ends with a Sr+ (reward).
Two approaches Forward chaining Backward chaining

Forward Chaining Defined:
Teach step 1 Perform the rest of the steps so student experiences the
final outcome. Gradually have the student do more and more of the
task (step 1, then step 1 & 2, then steps 1, 2 & 3…)

Forward Chaining1. Student does FIRST STEP, teacher does
the rest of chain.2. Keep adding steps until student
completes entire chain.3. Reinforce student for completing the
desired number of steps requested by the teacher.
4. Useful when prompting is difficult.

Backward Chaining1. Teacher does all but last step, student
completes LAST STEP.2. Keep adding steps until student
completes entire chain3. Reinforce student for completing the
desired number steps requested bythe teacher.
4. Often used with functional skills5. Student can perform steps with prompts.

Backward Chaining Defined
Perform the initial steps of the task, and then “teach” the last step (which leads to the reinforcer). Gradually move backward until the student does all the steps.
Main idea is the same as forward chaining. Build the small steps into a large task. Focus on the terminal reinforcer. Identify how each step leads to the next step.

Examples
Having learned to use hand-raises to obtain teacher assistance during the first week of school, Caesar continued to use the appropriately strategy the rest of the school year.
After learning how to successfully use “look cool & walk away” during peer conflicts in 8th grade, Cleo continued to use the strategy in 9th & 10th grades.
