Type |
Webinar |
Description |
The robots4autism program is a comprehensive intervention program that uses evidence-based practices through a social, humanoid, facially expressive robot, Milo. Milo speaks approximately 20% slower than humans. The combination of visual supports with his rate of speech enhances auditory processing. Thus, robots4autism program through Milo delivers developmental instruction in five (5) modules with over 140 lessons that teach critical social, emotional, behavioral, and communicative skill development. Utilizing evidence-based practices including but not limited to prompting, social narratives, social skills training positive reinforcement, visual supports, visual modeling, technology-aided instruction and intervention are integrated from simple to complex in 140 lessons, 1500 video vignettes, and 1700 video flashcards. The instructional design leverages Milo instructing, modeling, practicing, reinforcing, and re-teaching without tiring or frustration over and over again. Using a dedicated, secure web portal, data is collected, analyzed and reported providing measured progress and improvement in the following four (4) areas: 1. Lesson Completion, 2. Lesson Attempts, 3. Time to Respond (engagement and generalizing), 4. Accuracy of Response. TechXtend Education Solutions Vice President Kevin Askew will discuss the program and the results and impact that are being realized across the country with K-12 students. |
