Effects of Using Video Modeling In Teaching AAC to Individuals with ASD

Saturday December 7, 2024 3:00pm - 4:00pm CST

4TH Floor - Imperial 5B

The presentation will discuss a single case study. The study examined if using video modeling (VM) is an effective method for teaching augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Three children with ASD took part in the study. A multiple-probe across participants design was used. Participants' responses (task analysis) were used as dependent variables, and VM (short video clips) presented on an iPad was used as an independent variable. Baseline, intervention, and 1-week maintenance conditions were conducted to collect data. Results of the study indicates that using VM can help children with ASD effectively acquire communication skills and maintain the acquired skills.
