  1. Essential Components of a Program of Instruction for Every Student with ASDVI Part 4: Systematic, Planful Instruction, Including the Development of Social Interactions

  2. Generalization: Activities and Opportunities Comprehensive Program of Instruction: Address sensory and biological needs Provide appropriate reinforcement Opportunities to communicate and functional communication systems • 4) Concrete supports to assist with participation and understanding • Address task demands • Systematic, planful instruction • Data driven decision making • Appropriate level of instruction Assessment: Understand and Use “Picture of the Child” as the Foundation

  3. Instructional Format Provides Systematic Planful Teaching

  4. Foundations of Good Teaching • focus attention • prompt/shape • practice • reinforce effort • natural rewards consistency • instruction broken down into small steps (matched to learner) • continuous review and adaptation • generalization Jordan prompting

  5. Task Analysis and Functional Routines

  6. Data Driven Decisions

  7. Functional Application Jordan doing a simple task Ren

  8. Options and Strategies to Address Critical Social Skills For Students with ASD and Visual Impairment

  9. Some examples… • Opening and closing a conversation • Initiating peer interaction and joining play • Decoding facial expressions and body language • Observing and mimicking appropriate social behavior in specific situations • Predicting and understanding the emotions and reactions of others

  10. Social skill deficits may be separated into four broad categories of social functioning: nonverbal communication, social initiation, social reciprocity, and social cognition.

  11. First Step: Assessment • Range of Typical Expectations • Strengths and weaknesses • Establish baseline of performance

  12. Social Interaction Checklist Autism Spectrum Disorders and Visual Impairments: Page 131

  13. Process • Match social interaction instruction to students’ needs and settings. • Prioritize • Task analyze social interaction skills • Provide opportunities as well as evidence-based instruction • Provide instruction and data analysis • Use reinforcement

  14. 7. Plan for Generalization The key to long term results!

  15. Possible Solutions: Area of Concern: • Play • Conversations • Inappropriate Social Interactions Possible Strategy: • PRT • Social Narratives • Problem Solving Strategies • Incredible 5-Point Scale

  16. Social Narratives Social narratives can be used: • after a social "error" has occurred (e.g., saying something rude to a classmate, hitting, yelling) • prior to a transition or new experience (getting a haircut, changing schools, going to the Dr.'s office, etc.) • as an intervention to reduce existing recurring behaviors (nose picking, blurting out in class, etc.) The use of social narratives strategies by the individual must be taught through direct instruction

  17. SOCIAL NARRATIVES and SCRIPTS http://www.txautism.net/docs/Guide/Interventions/SocialNarratives.pdf

  18. Social Problem Solving Six Steps of Analyzing Social Situations 1. Describe the social scenario, setting, behavior, or problem (What's happening or what has happened?). 2. Recognize the feelings/thoughts of participants (How does he/she/you feel? What is he/she thinking?). 3. Understand the feeling of participants (Why is he/she/you feeling/thinking that way? Ask child to provide evidence). 4. Predict the consequences (What do you think will happen next? What will be the consequences of this behavior?). 5. Select alternative behaviors (What could he/she/you have done differently). 6. Predict the consequence for alternative behaviors. Bellini, 2006, p. 157
