Problem• Child MC – age 4 years – has 9 IEP goals in 5
developmental domains that involve 4 benchmarks each.
• End of year IEP meeting – mother asks, “Overall, how much progress did he make on his plan this year?”
• How can the classroom
teacher easily summarize?
![Page 30: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Problem• School District has added additional funds to
support all 36 students in inclusive education in High Point middle school in some general ed classes.
• At end of year, asks Resource Teacher for summary of progress of these 36 children so that they can compare progress of included children to progress of center based children at the other middle school in district.
• How can the Resource Teacher easily summarize progress of the 36 students?

Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS)
• What is it? A method for measuring amount of progress made
on a goal, objective, or benchmark.
Content free
Allows progress to be easily summarized across multiple goals or students
Not a substitute for objective measurement or progress – it’s a supplement
![Page 33: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Description of GAS
• Care provider establishes goals/benchmarks/ objectives that are measured on a continuum. After getting his work, James will independently
complete all 15 steps on the bicycle brake assembly task 90% of the time when working in the bike shop.
At start of each class, Sasha will turn in her completed homework assignment in biology class on time 85% of days in a one month period.
Julia will use 10 different words spontaneously during free play activity with typical peers.

How to Develop a GAS • Select learning objective.
• Identify the current – baseline - level of performance.
• Identify the expected level at end of teaching period.
• Generate the additional outcome points on the scale.
• Examine progress using the GAS when you evaluate learning according to your benchmarks on a regularly designated schedule (monthly, bimonthly).
• Summarize the child’s or group’s overall progress at the end of the year by averaging the final GAS score.

Is this extra work?• NO –
benchmarks are already written assessments will occur as already planned Additional benchmarks can carry over into next year ?
• YES BUT– Adding higher benchmarks is easy! Just increase the criterion –
85% vs 95%, 2 times an hour vs. 4 times an hour, doing with a peer vs with 3 peers, doing X in snacktime vs. in snacktime and circle.
generating the above goal points allows you to reflect more growth
Process may result in more focused teaching ?

Break and small group activity
• Identify one crucial IEP goal/objective for one target student
• Go through the GAS process as a group
• Write it out on the form
• Think about how this will influence your teaching with that student
![Page 43: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Evidence-Based Practices:
What’s the fuss all about?
![Page 44: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
As a consumer - • Your doctor suggests surgery to you as the first
approach for a non-lie threatening chronic condition. What is your response?
• Your first grade daughter Marci has been struggling with reading. She doesn’t yet reliably associate letters with sounds. The teacher wants to use a sight word approach due to Marci’s excellent memory. What is your response?
![Page 45: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Evidence Based Practices• What does it mean?
• It’s been tested and found to be effective
• Why does it matter? It’s the law It’s the most efficient way to teach Most efficient way to learn Better chance of success
![Page 46: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Evidence Based Practices (EBP)
• If there is no evidence, does it mean the practice is ineffective?
• If the child progresses, isn’t that evidence of effectiveness?
• What are the risks of using practices that are not evidence based?
![Page 47: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
NPDC Definition of EBP• The teaching practice has been tested and found to be
effective in:
(1)Two randomized or other well-controlled (quasi-experimental design) studies.
AND/ OR
(2) Five single-subject design studies conducted by at least three different researchers
![Page 48: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

What has to be considered when applying an EBP? Fidelity!
• Medicine Condition Patient Drug/procedure Dosage How administered Measure of efficacy When to change
approaches
• Education/intervention Content/behavior Student Teaching approach How much time daily Specific procedures Data collection and
examination When to change
approaches
![Page 50: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Efficacy vs. Effectiveness• Efficacy is the systematic evaluation of
whether a treatment works
• Effectiveness is the extent to which the treatment works in natural settings – “real world” applications
• Clinical utility is the applicability, feasibility, acceptability, and usefulness of the intervention in a specific setting
![Page 51: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Utility of EBP’s
• Some EBP’s may have a strong evidence base but be less useful in educational settings.
• Use professional judgment to determine what is most feasible and applicable to your unique context / student.
![Page 52: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

Choosing an evidence-based practice for a student
Ask: What is our goal/objective targeting?
• Consider the specific IEP goals and related objectives
Ask: What are our options?
• Look at the domain that the specific goal relates

IEP Application Goal - Communication
Goal: Sam will improve expressive communication skills across the school day.
Related Objective:When he sees a preferred object, Sam will request a desired item during snack and/or free choice time three times per day for two consecutive weeks.
![Page 58: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
• Sam is in an inclusive kindergarten setting.• Sam does not like talking to most people and
he is difficult to understand.• Last year’s IEP efforts to increase his use of
speech using differential reinforcement and naturalistic approaches were not successful.
• Sam is already using pictures for a visual schedule at school.
• One of Sam’s classmates uses PECS, and Sam is interested in the pictures.

How do we decide which EBP to use?
Ask: What is the goal targeting?
• Expressive Language
Ask: What are the options?

IEP Application Goals – BEHAVIOR/COMMUNICATION
Goal: Rosita will improve
communication skills.
Related objective:When Rosita shows distress
during learning tasks, she will use words, not self injury to request a break or assistance 85% of opportunities over two consecutive weeks.
![Page 62: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Let’s say we know this…• Through the FBA process, the team
determined that Rosita was head banging and self biting during lengthy teaching interactions to end the interaction.
• Rosita does have oral language, but tends to not talk very much.
• Rosita is interested in print and can read simple words and short sentences.
• Rosita enjoys peer interaction more than adult interaction.

How do we decide which EBP to use?
Ask: What is our objective targeting?
• Expressive Language/Pragmatics
• Behavior
Ask: What are our options?

Choosing an EPB to teach a skill involves:
• The skills being taught• Your professional wisdom• The learner’s learning style• The learner’s temperament• The learner’s interests and motivators• Supports already in place• History of what has and hasn’t worked
![Page 66: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Integrating EBP’s• Few practices are ever really used in isolation.
• Prompting and reinforcement, for example, are used in almost all of the other practices.
• Task analysis, too, is used prior to teaching skills through video modeling, visual supports, etc.
• Teams are encouraged, through coaching and mentoring, to explore the overlap of practices.
![Page 67: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Integrating EBP’sExamples:• Video modeling can be used to teach a self-
management system. (model site example : )
• A social narrative can be written to explain the routine of a social skills training group.
• A speech generating device may be used by a learner in the context of a peer-mediated intervention.
![Page 68: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Integrating EBP’s
• The understanding required to use practices concurrently, while still being mindful of fidelity of implementation, is an important component in the development of skillful teachers and practitioners.

Don’t tell me I have to keep data!
Developing helpful data systems
![Page 71: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Why is data critical for EBP use?
• Collection of performance data tells us:
• What should we be teaching?
• Is our instruction successful?
• Is the student making progress?
• Do we need to change the teaching plan?
• Is it time to introduce a new skill?
![Page 72: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
The many ways to measure learning
• Event recording: frequency counts,%%• Latency recording: time elapsed• Did it happen at all? Yes-no• For chains: number of independent steps • Assessing steps before independence:
levels of prompts, precision (for shaping)• Once skills are mastered: thinning
reinforcement schedules, generalization to other skills, settings, environs, partners
![Page 73: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Assessing progress
• Don’t start the new practice until you have baseline data!!! Assess skill a few times in your current way of
teaching first; to determine the baseline rate
• Summarize data immediately to make it useful: rates, percents, simple graphs
![Page 74: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)

Take home points• EBPs represent the most effective teaching practices
in ed science
• Start with these, as written
• Pick them carefully, by student age, setting, and content area
• Get baseline data before you begin a new practice or implement a change!!
• Measure as you go – don’t continue ineffective teaching
• Assume students will progress when well taught
![Page 79: Http://. Evidenced Based Practices for Children and Youth with ASD](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e2d5503460f94b1d5f0/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Relationship between EBP and State Standards
• Standard defines content – skills to be learned
• EBP defines teaching practice – the teaching procedures used to teach the skill
• EBP is not about curriculum !
Content From standards EBP Learning!+ =
