To enable these children to function independently and to perform better scholastically, following strategies are used;-
ABA– Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific method to increase and decrease a target behavior using specific techniques. Several ABA techniques have been developed for creating useful skills in individuals with autism of all ages. The techniques are used in structured situations such as formal instruction in classrooms, in addition to everyday situations such as during play. They are also used to develop not only basic skills — such as looking, listening, and imitating — but also complex skills — such as reading, carrying on a conversation, and adopting the attitude of other children.
Some of the techniques used are-
- Reinforcements- Positive and Negative
When a behavior is followed by some sort of reward and the behavior is more likely to be repeated then it is termed as positive reinforcement. If the removal of an event serves as a reinforcer, this is termed negative reinforcement.
- Punishment Punishment refers to a consequence which is followed immediately by a behavior (undesired) which decreases the future frequency of that behavior.
- Chaining The skill to be learned is broken down into small units for easy learning.
- Shaping Shaping involves gradually modifying the existing behavior into the desired behavior. This is done by visual demonstration.
- Prompting A promptis a cue or assistance to encourage the desired response from a child. Prompts are given in a most-to-least sequence and faded systematically to ensure that children experiences a high level of success.
- Visual Cues including flash cards, Date and Day chart, picture cards etc.
- De-briefing and Summarizing chapters – Chapters are summarized and de-briefed in order to eliminate complex topics and learn and understand the most useful one’s.
PRETEND PLAY - Pretend play helps in enhancing child’s capacity for cognitive flexibility and, ultimately, creativity. It helps in learning social skills, ways of communication etc. When children are playing pretend they are playing ‘as if’ something or someone is real. They are creating a situation where there is more going on that what is literally happening.
SOCIAL STORIES- Social Stories are short descriptions of a particular situation, event or activity, which include specific information about what to expect in that situation and why. It helps to develop self-care skills (eg, wash hands or get dressed), social skills (eg sharing, asking for help, saying thank you) and academic abilities. It helps a person to cope with changes to routine and unexpected or distressing events and is also used as a behavioural strategy (eg what to do when angry).
Teaching is divided in such a way that special abilities like artistic abilities, good verbal skills etc. are praised and encouraged and more time is spent in those areas that are the most difficult.
