Progressive w88 live casino Delay Prompting

What is a w88 live casino?

In general, a w88 live casino is assistance provided to a learner by another person (e.g., parent, teacher, paraprofessional) to increase the probability of correct responding to a ‘stimulus’ (e.g., vocal instruction, task materials). Prompting a child to respond correctly helps the child to learn faster by reducing the number of errors (or mistakes) a child may make.

What is a controlling w88 live casino?

A controlling w88 live casino is a w88 live casino that increases the probability the learner will produce the correct response (i.e., almost always ensures the learner will make the correct response). For example, for a child that consistently responds to a gesture w88 live casino (e.g., the teacher points at the correct response), the controlling w88 live casino may be a gesture. For a child who does not respond to gesture prompts, the controlling w88 live casino may be gentle physical guidance from the teacher. The controlling w88 live casino will be different depending on the activity and the learner. What is important to remember is that the controlling w88 live casino is the w88 live casino that basically guarantees child success without providing any more assistance than necessary.

What is Progressive w88 live casino Delay prompt?

Progressive w88 live casino delay (PTD) is a type of prompting strategy that can be used to effectively teach a wide variety of skills or tasks. Progressive w88 live casino delay prompts have multiple levels; regardless of the number of levels, PTD is always started with a 0-second delay. After a predetermined number of trials with a 0-second delay, the w88 live casino between the instruction and prompt is gradually increased until a maximum delay interval is reached. With PTD prompting, one prompt is typically used (it does not change); the w88 live casino when a prompt is delivered gradually changes.

How to use

What to decide in advance (prior to a teaching session):

1. The number of teaching trials with a 0-second w88 live casino;
2. How to increase the progressive delay interval (e.g., you could gradually increase the w88 live casino be-tween the instruction and the prompt by 1 second, 2 seconds, or 3 seconds);
3. The maximum w88 live casino interval (i.e., the w88 live casino used until the learner masters the task);
4. The criteria to move from 0-second w88 live casino to progressive w88 live casino intervals;
5. The type of controlling w88 live casino;
6. The criteria to move back to an earlier w88 live casino interval if the child makes multiple errors

Initially, the discriminative stimulus (e.g., instruction) is presented at the same w88 live casino as the controlling prompt. For example, if teaching a child to raise his/her arms up (in preparation for putting a shirt on) and the controlling prompt is a gentle physical prompt: the teacher could say, “w88 live casino to put your shirt on” while simultaneously using a physical prompt to raise the child’s arms. The number of trials with a 0-second delay will vary based on the child. Consider moving from the immediate 0-second delay teaching trials to the gradually increasing delay trials when the child responds correctly to the prompt at a 0-second delay across several days.

After a predetermined number of trials with a 0-second delay, the w88 live casino between the instruction and prompt is gradually increased until the maximum delay interval is reached. For example, for a delay of 5 seconds, the teacher silently counts, ‘one one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five,’ when the teacher reaches 5, he/she presents the prompt. How quickly the delay interval is increased and the maximum delay interval should be individualized to each child. For example, if the child requires longer processing times, a longer maximum delay interval may be appropriate. The delay between the instruction and the prompt allows the child an opportunity to respond independently. In a review of literature conducted by Walker in 2008: (a) the maximum delay intervals commonly ranged from 5 to 10-seconds and (b) the delay between the instruction and the prompt was frequently increased by 1 or 2 seconds.

How are these guidelines applied?

For example, at a 0-second w88 live casino, the instruction and prompt are presented simultaneously, after a predetermined criteria is met, the w88 live casino between the instruction and the prompt could be increased by 2-second intervals (e.g., prompt presented at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 seconds after the instruction). The child should meet a set criterion before he/she is moved to the next w88 live casino interval. A abbreviated example is presented below:

If the child makes several consecutive errors, consider changing the set delay w88 live casino. For example, if the child correctly responds to prompts at the 2-second delay, however, consistently responds incorrectly at the 4-second delay – consider changing the set delay back to 2-seconds (perhaps the child needs more practice).

Differentially reinforce prompted and independent responses – that is, provide more or bigger reinforcement for independent responses (i.e., when the child beats the w88 live casino) and smaller or lesser quality reinforcement for prompted responses (i.e., when the child responds correctly to the w88 live casino provided).

Types of responses:

• Correct responses before the w88 live casino (i.e., child 'beats' the w88 live casino) - provide more or bigger reinforcement
• Correct responses after a w88 live casino was provided - provide lesser or smaller amounts of the reinforcer.
• If the child responds incorrectly before the w88 live casino - provide error correction (e.g., informational "No") and move to the next trial.
• If the child does not respond or responds incorrectly after the w88 live casino - provide error correction (e.g., informational "No") and move to the next trial.

Example 1 of using PTD to teach a w88 live casino to raise her arms in response to the instruction, "Shirt on."

• For this example, the prompt w88 live casino will be increased by 2-seconds, up to a maximum w88 live casino of 4 seconds (remember, the progressive w88 live casino and maximum w88 live casino can vary based on learner needs and the task)
• The controlling w88 live casino is a physical w88 live casino.
• The criteria to move to the next w88 live casino level is: responds correctly to prompt 100% of opportunities across two days.

Example 2 of using PTD to teach a w88 live casino to sight read the word ‘drink.’

• For this example, the prompt w88 live casino will be increased by 1-second, up to a maximum w88 live casino of 4 seconds (remember, the progressive w88 live casino and maximum w88 live casino can vary based on learner needs and the task).
• The controlling w88 live casino is a vocal w88 live casino.
• The criteria to move to the next w88 live casino level is: responds correctly to prompt and/or independently100% of opportunities across two days.

What can PTD be used to teach?

Research indicates PTD can be successfully used to teach a wide variety of skills (this list is not comprehensive): self-help skills, leisure skills (e.g., art), social skills, and academic skills (e.g., object recognition, sight words, math facts).
