Helping Autistic Students Find Their Voice with ABA SPEECH
Manage episode 367952240 series 3490567
Host Annette Hines begins the episode with a reminder that even though summer just started for many of us, for parents with school-age kids, it’s time to start thinking about returning to school. She recommends that parents dust off that IEP and review it for needed changes for the upcoming school year. If you have a high school student with disabilities, Hines’ Special Needs Academy course, Special Needs Advocacy and Planning is a must! It includes detailed guidance on how to help prepare a student to transition into adulthood including information about assessments and evaluations and whether they are necessary for the transition process as well as a dedicated module on emerging adults, the IEP, and working with the school.
For the interview, Hines speaks with Rose Griffin, the founder of ABA SPEECH, which provides online courses and consulting related to Autism speech therapy for board certified behavior analysts and speech therapists. Currently, if you visit abaspeech.org, you can subscribe to receive a free IEP Goal Bank that provides real-life examples of specific, measurable goals. Griffin’s work focuses on Autistic learners and integrating ABA into traditional speech therapy. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) according to Autism Speaks is a therapy approach based on the science of learning and behavior by using positive reinforcement with rewards as well as understanding causal relationships between what happens before and after a behavior occurs.
