Description
Self-management strategies have been used for students with a
wide range of academic and behavioral challenges, including students
with ASD. Teaching self-management is a pivotal behavior for students
to learn how to independently regulate their behavior across many
situations. Although teachers and family members may initially play a
major role in the implementation of the system, ultimately, the
responsibility for ongoing use of the system should be passed to the
student as much as possible. In this presentation, participants will
learn how to individualize a self-management system for a student with
ASD. This will include the steps needed for a student to learn to
discriminate between appropriate and inappropriate behaviors, monitor
and record their own behaviors, and reward themselves for meeting a
specified goal.
Objectives:
- Identify the benefits of self-management systems for students with ASD
- Gain knowledge on the primary steps for developing a self-management system
- Identify the components for teaching the use of a self-management system
- Identify target behaviors that can be addressed using self-management systems
- Identify variables and questions to consider in individualizing a self-management system
- Develop a self-management system to address a skill deficit or challenging behavior
