Why is learning about prompting important? • 1. To obtain more accurate information about students abilities. • 2. To identify the most successful strategy to work with the students. • 3. To give the students the opportunity to accomplish a task/become more independent
When do you combine types of prompts and when don’t you? • 1. Full Physical Assistance is the most effective, but NOT where you start • 2. When you need to determine what the student is capable of, DO NOT combine types of prompts • 3. When you know a student well, SIMPLE combining can enhance learning and independence ( do not overwhelm)
