Teachers and Their Perceptions About Adaptive Skill Training Within an Early Childhood Comprehensive Development Classroom for Students with Intellectual DisabilitiesLynberg, Jennifer R 01 May 2018 (has links) (PDF)
This dissertation investigated teacher perceptions about adaptive skill training within an early childhood comprehensive development classroom for students with intellectual disabilities. The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding about adaptive skills from a teacher's perspective. The aims of the study were to help educators understand the role of comfort level, importance of adaptive skills, planning for adaptive skills, and connecting adaptive skills to an academic outcome. A quantitative, cross-sectional design was used, and an online survey was completed by 254 special education teachers. The participants that completed the survey were 93% female and on average had 14 years of teaching experience. The survey gathered teachers' opinions about adaptive skills. It was reported that teachers felt adaptive skills were important to teach in the classroom environment. The teachers also reported that toileting was the most important adaptive skill. The survey also found that teachers explicitly teach adaptive skills on a daily basis. The survey also revealed that instruction might improve if access to a structured curriculum was more readily available and age appropriate. It was reported that there were very limited opportunities for educators to attend professional development about adaptive skills. These findings communicated that adaptive skills seem to be important to educators, and the lack of availability for structured curriculums should be addressed to further meet the needs of students with intellectual disabilities.

USING A VIDEO MODELING-BASED INTERVENTION PACKAGE TO TEACH HAND WASHING TO CHILDREN WITH AUTISMPrapti, Ndaru 01 January 2018 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to teach four preschool children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to wash their hands independently using a video modeling-based intervention package. A research questions was asked: Is there a functional relation between a video modeling-based intervention package and increases in level and trend for washing hands independently? A multiple probe across participants design was used to answer this question. Results indicated that the intervention package had functional relation with the increase in level and trend of the three participants’ performance in washing hands. The intervention package of video modeling and least-to-most prompting was found to be effective to teach the participants the skills taught.

Emotional Dysregulation and Adaptive Skills Among Siblings of Bipolar ChildrenWoller, Nikki Marie 01 January 2016 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to understand the effects of pediatric bipolar disorder on child siblings. A quantitative quasi-experimental research design was used. According to family systems theory, which was used in the formation of this study, all family members are interconnected and affect each other in a variety of ways. The research questions investigated whether children demonstrated more emotional dysregulation and fewer adaptive skills when a bipolar sibling was living in the home than when there was no bipolar sibling. The matched comparison study used 2 groups of children: those with bipolar siblings and those without bipolar siblings. Parents completed the BASC-2 Parent Rating Scale in order to measure adaptive skills and emotional dysregulation in their non-bipolar children. Parents were recruited via social media parent support sites. Thirty-four families included in the study group had 1 bipolar child and at least 1 nonbipolar child living in the home; 31 families in the comparison group had no bipolar children. All children were under the age of 18, living together full time, had a biological or legal relationship, and did not have any other mental health diagnosis. A multivariate analysis of variance was used to test the hypotheses. The study found that children with bipolar siblings demonstrated significantly higher levels of emotional dysregulation (both externalization and internalization) than did children without bipolar siblings. There was no significant difference in reported adaptive skills between the 2 groups of children. This study has social change implications as it identifies the emotional needs of sibling children who are routinely overlooked as needing assistance. This study provides the groundwork for clinicians and educators working in the pediatric mental health field to begin exploring potential treatments and programs for siblings of bipolar children.

A design model of a competency based modular training system for the printing, newspaper and packaging industriesThomas, David Llewellyn, 1944- 06 1900 (has links)
The study centres on the development of a didactically justified design model
of a competency based modular training system for the Printing, Newspaper and
Packaging Industries.
The design model is represented in a diagram form identifying the components
of the design model in relation to their systems function. The components of
the design model are; training needs analysis, aims and objectives of
training, the learner initial situation, the code of practice for training
within industry, the pre-interactive training phase, the interactive training
phase and training outcomes.
Checklists are developed for using the design model as well as some practical
examples of the implementation of the design model in creating a training
system which features sound andragogic didactic principles and practices.
The use of the design model enables the development of a practical competency
based modular training system which meets the unique requirements of the
