ECE512 : Analyzing Behavior for Students with ASD

This course will provide participants with the tools needed to build on their knowledge of autism while learning to assess behavioral needs. Various strategies will be reviewed to analyze student behavior, identify variables related to the behaviors that are unique to ASD, and develop programs that promote positive behavioral supports (PBS). Some of the strategies addressed will include the Ziggurat model, developed by Aspy and Grossman. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to conduct an assessment of ASD student behavior and develop a behavior plan with identified strategies for instruction and support.
