  1. Natural Environment Teaching Justin Daigle, MA, BCBA, LBA

  2. What is NET? • Natural Environment Teaching • Often called “Incidental Teaching” • Effective way to address concerns of Autism

  3. Background • ABA – Applying behavioral principals in treatment • DTT – A form of teaching using discrete trials • NET – An alternative form of treatment

  4. Effective • National Standards Project • NET is Effective • Does not have to be combined with other teaching methods (such as DTT), but often is.

  5. AT TCA • Our Goal: To teach target behaviors in a DTT setting, then using NET to generalize the behaviors to different situations.

  6. Review of NET • Not Structured • Client Led • Data is Recorded Separately • No discrete ending/beginning

  7. Teach to Reach • If client is reaching, you have a MO. • Require a mand to receive the item.

  8. Be a Giver • And Not A Taker • It’s best to anticipate the SR+ instead of removing the SR+

  9. Transfer Trials • You can still use principles of Errorless Learning in NET • Transfer Trials • Error Correction Trials • Differential Reinforcement

  10. A Few Notes • Vary your stimuli • Remember the goal is to have the client behavior spontaneously • Remember it’s all about the client’s motivation

  11. Know your client • Where are they at? • Where should we “push” them? • What are the most important “battles”?

  12. Additional Notes • Work on skills mastered in DTT • Balance the amount of demands with the amount of free access

  13. Distinctions • Early Learner (cookie) • Intermediate Learner (I want a cookie) • Advanced Learner (Can I have a cookie, please?)

  14. Early learners • Never bombard client with trials • Should be natural • Should have mastered in DTT

  15. Early learners • 1 word Mands • Instruction Following • Impure Tacting • Intraverbal Fill-ins (if able)

  16. Int. learners • Manding with “Carrier Phrases”(I want, I need, give me, etc) • Manding for attention • 2-step Instruction Following • Answering Basic Questions

  17. Adv. learners • Manding for Information • Reciprocal Commenting • Tacting using sentences • Recalling Past Events • Full Intraverbals

  18. Adv. learners • It is considered more adventitious to teaching verbal behavior in an NET environment to Advanced Learners. • Why do you think that is?

  19. Issues with NET • “Unstructured” means there is more emphasis placed on the talent of the instructor. • Data can be difficult to take because targets have to be broadly defined

  20. You and net • NET takes practice to learn • Try running intervals of NET trials with your clients after the data sheet has been completed.

  21. Thank you • Thank you for your time • Questions?
