SPAI 440 Principles of Positive Behavior Support for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder
The course is designed to provide class participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to develop, implement, and evaluate the impact of positive behavioral supports (PBS) for the individual with ASD and their systems of support. It will include understanding the role of universal design, communication in challenging behavior, identifying the functions of those behaviors, measuring the behaviors, teaching new skills that serve the same function as the challenging behavior, and using preventative approaches for target behaviors. Measurement of baseline behavior, implementing interventions to increase positive pro-social behavior and reducing negative behavior are the focus of this process.
