signing, pointing to or exchanging pictures, or activating an augmentative

device)

.. Select the communication responses and supporting skills that

should be taught first.

.. Recommend teaching procedures for children who have no formal

communication skills.

.. Use errorless teaching techniques

.. Use quick-transfer (prompting and fading) procedures.

.. Implement discrete trial training in the natural environment and

during intensive teaching session.

spectrum will learn powerful new techniques for developing and enhancing
