Group instruction is a fundamental component of educational settings, from preschool classrooms to adult learning environments.

Teaching effective hand raising to children with autism during group instruction.Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis,43(3), 493-497. To earn credit, you will be required to read the article and pass a 5-question quiz about it. You can retake the quiz as many times as needed, but you will not receive exactly the same questions each time. We taught 3 children with autism to raise a hand or keep both hands down depending on their status (e.g., having heard a target word, possessing a specific item) using modeling, prompting, and reinforcement. All 3 children acquired accurate hand-raising skills in response to progressively more difficult discrimination tasks during group instruction. The implications for preparing children for general education settings are discussed. Only logged in customers who have purchased this product may leave a review.
