It's All About Independent Functioning! Susan Stokes Wksp

Are you struggling with teaching your students independent functioning skills? If so, this training is for you! A primary goal when teaching students with ASD is to decrease dependence on adults. However, this can be quite challenging in school-based settings where the educational climate fosters adult support. For our students with ASD, who by the nature of their disability can become quite “prompt-dependent”, this instructional style can be extremely detrimental, resulting in life-long ramifications. This training will address how to appropriately use adult support to teach independent functioning skills. Numerous, practical evidence-based techniques using various modes of technology (low to high tech!) designed to increase the independent functioning skills of our students with ASD will be shared.
