Question
Answer
Shaping   Student is rewarded when repeatedly attempting the mastery of a task.  
🗑
Sequencing   A task is broken into segments or steps and the student completes the activity by completing one step at a time until the task is done.  
🗑
Reciprocal Learning   Helps students learn skills, concepts, information, and new ideas by completing a task after viewing modeling.  
🗑
Preteaching   Helps students recall prior knowledge and background information, as well as previous experiences about a topic.  
🗑
Monitoring   The teacher is constantly involved in the student's work to observe the progress and identify areas of concern.  
🗑
Incidental Teaching   A strategy that teaches a skill or a concept during an event or situation in which it is presently occurring.  
🗑
Coaching   Helps students by giving them hints or suggestions to enhance learning by performing a task or gaining a skill.  
🗑
Universal Design   The concept that everything in the environment in learning and in products should be accessible to everyone.  
🗑
Transfer of Stimulus Control   Providing instructional prompts to aid in correct responses.  
🗑
Time Trial   A procedure that improves fluency of new skills through time limits.  
🗑
Task Analysis   A strategy in which the goals are broken into smaller steps and sequences while keeping the learner's pace in focus.  
🗑
Systematic Feedback   Providing positive reinforcement and confirmation to improve learning.  
🗑
Strategic Instruction   A planned, sequential instruction to show similarities and differences between acquired and new knowledge.  
🗑
Skill Drill   Repetition and practice of new skills until the learner performs without cues or prompts.  
🗑
Scaffolding   Applying stages to learning content and tasks by first observing the student to see what she can do and then helping her understand the how and why until she can perform herself.  
🗑
Response Cards   A method that allows all students to answer simultaneously by using signs, cards, or items held up to demonstrate responses.  
🗑
Repetition   Continual work on a specific skill or content concept to help build rote memory skills.  
🗑
Remediation   A program technique to teach students to overcome an exceptionality through training and education.  
🗑
Prompting   A technique in which a visual, auditory, or tactile cue is presented to facilitate the completion of a task or to perform a behavior.  
🗑
Precision Teaching   An approach that identifies the skills to be taught and uses direct daily measure of the students' performance to acquire the skills.  
🗑
Peer Tutoring   Under the guidance of a teacher, a non-disabled student with competencies in a particular area works with a student with a disability who needs assistance to enhance an area of study.  
🗑
Naturalistic Teaching   Procedures that involve activities interesting to students with naturally occurring consequences.  
🗑
Multiple Intelligence Strategies   The nine areas of learning that are addressed in classroom instruction:  
🗑
Modification   Changing the content, material, or delivery of instruction.  
🗑
Modeling   A method that helps make connections between the material to be learned and the process to learn it by acting out sequences while students observe and then imitate the task.  
🗑
Mnemonics   A strategy that enhances memory through keywords, acronyms, or acrostics.  
🗑
Mediated Scaffolding   A procedure that provides cues and prompts while gradually removing them so students can perform and respond independently.  
🗑
Learning Strategy   An approach that teaches students how to learn and remember particular content.  
🗑
Learning Centers   Specific areas or activities that enhance the curricular content and allow independent or small group instruction.  
🗑
Guided Practice   Providing opportunities to gain knowledge by offering cues, prompts, or added sequential information.  
🗑
Graphic Organizer   A visual-spatial organization of information to help students understand presented concepts.  
🗑
Generalization   The ability to use skills learned across various settings.  
🗑
Fluency Building   A measure that encourages practice of skills to improve the accuracy and rate of use.  
🗑
Facilitated Groups   Students engage in active learning with lessons designed and overseen by the teacher but managed by the students.  
🗑
Direct Measurement   Checking on student achievement during a period for a specific opportunity to perform and recording the response.  
🗑
Direct Instruction   A systematic approach of teaching with specific goals, active learner engagement, and positive reinforcement for student performance.  
🗑
Differentiated Instruction   To address the varying abilities, strengths, and needs of learners and their styles of learning imposed a choice of learning activities, tasks that suit the learning style, student grouping, authentic lessons, and problem based activities.  
🗑
Diagnostic-Prescriptive Method   Individualizing instruction to develop strengths and remediate weaknesses.  
🗑
Cue and Prompts   Provides assistance to ensure adequate support of instruction.  
🗑
Cooperative Learning   Classroom is divided into groups to work together to complete a task or participate in an activity.  
🗑

Content Enhancements   Techniques used to aid in the organization and delivery of curriculum, such as guided notes, graphic organizers, mnemonics, and visual displays.  
🗑
Concept Generalization   The ability for students to demonstrate concept knowledge by applying the information to other settings with prompts from the teacher.  
🗑
Cloze Procedure   The use of semantic and syntactic clues to aid in completing sentences.

Chunking   A strategy that allows a student to remember and organize large amounts of information.  
🗑
Choral Responding   Oral response of students to a question or problem presented by the teacher.  
🗑
Chaining   A technique in which student performance is reinforced so the student will continue to perform more complex tasks in a sequence.
