When working with students with disabilities in ABA-based educational programs, the best outcomes will occur when all adults working with the students implement effective assessment and intervention strategies with fidelity. However, teaching staff members evidence-based procedures and ensuring consistency among professionals and paraprofessionals is often challenging. The presenter will illustrate these challenges, including an analysis of resistance to consultation.
Get directions to O'Leary library with campus maps. A large parking lot is available on the corner of Wilder and Broadway (entrance on Wilder). This parking lot has a barrier which will be raised in time for the talk.
