Teaching real-life skills to kids with autism, such as identifying same and different, yes and no, and the concept of not, can be difficult for parents, teachers, and even trained behavior analysts. In today’s special interview, I have Dr. Janet Twyman with me and we discuss the best instructional strategies for reading, writing, and math for children with autism.
Dr. Twyman is an education innovator, former president of the Association of Behavior Analysis, former vice president of instructional development at Headsprout and founder of Blast. I officially met Dr. Janet Twyman at a workshop when she was still the president of ABAI and I have been trying to get her onto the show to talk about her expertise in the field of instructional development. She started out as an educator and worked with big names in the autism world such as Mark Woolery, Dave Gas and Mike Nelson from whom she learned a lot about the power of behavior analysis from.
Dr. Twyman shares how the principles of behavioral change can be universal and how honing those principles allows a positive teaching environment and increased progress. With both of us being so deeply immersed in the behavioral analysis world, Janet and I exchange notes on different platforms and curriculums that we believe can help parents, teachers and other behavioral analysts effectively teach academics to children with autism through critical discrimination, observing and testing.
