First half page: Discrete trial training (DTT) is a popular instructional strategy employed with children diagnosed with ASD. While being grounded in the evidence-based principles of Applied Behavior Analysis, it has been successfully used to teach a range of behaviors and skills. As with all intervention methods, it is not without its limitations as well.
In this first half a page Discussion, you will analyze the benefits and limitations of DTT and share them with your Instructor and colleagues. In addition, you will conduct a search for supplemental information on the use of DTT for ASD.
Post an explanation of the benefits and limitations of discrete trial training and further describe behaviors for which discrete trial interventions are most appropriate. Support your explanation with the resources and an article you found in your search.
second half a page:Structured teaching, including TEACCH, has been used for numerous years in the United States and internationally. While research has been conducted on the efficacy of this intervention strategy, most of the success of the program is largely due to the preparation of those implementing it.

In this second half page Discussion, you will analyze TEACCH and other structured approaches to teaching and share them with your Instructor and colleagues.
Post an explanation of the benefits and limitations of structured approaches (i.e., TEACCH), and further describe behaviors for which structured approach interventions are most appropriate. Support your explanation with the resources and an article you found in your search.
