Prior to editing fields, you can RENAME the title of the Program.

NOTE: This is the program name that holds targets for data collection, so it typically remains general (e.g., labeling animals, attending to task, making a bed, tolerating aversives, etc.)

Description

Goal

Image Modified

This is an open text box. You can write the goal of the program as you see fit for this client.

How to track progress

Choose 1 option: Goal only or Goal and Objectives

Please see notes to assist with making your decision

Image Modified

This is asking whether you want 1 goal with targets underneath or goals, with objectives, with targets in each objective.

IMPORTANT: Targets still need to be added to

objectives before any data collection can take place (done in a later section). All targets within 1 objective have to be mastered before any targets in another objective can be opened. All objectives have the same mastery criteria (set in the next section). If you’d like more flexibility, select Goal Only

the program for any data collection to occur regardless of having objectives.

Refer to Copy of Using Goal Only vs. Goals and Objectives

Triggering maintenance

Image Added

When this box is selected, targets will be mastered based on the mastery criteria of the program.

The maintenance schedule is a recommendation, it does not trigger a maintenance schedule automatically

Maintenance schedule (only if triggering maintenance is selected)

Automatic Phase Change Line

Image Modified

Selecting this box would have a phase change line automatically populate when targets are mastered and maintenance targets are reintroduced.

Objectives (only if you chose Goals and Objectives above)

Image Added

NOTE: This would only display if you chose Goals and Objectives previously. This would NOT display if you chose Goal Only. You can use more or less than 3 objectives. Each of the objectives is an open text field to edit.

Data collection type

Select One Option. If collecting data multiple ways for a single goal, the goal will need to be duplicated after editing is completed. Further edits would continue in the duplicated version.

With or Without Prompts

Image Added

This section is asking whether or not you would like to collect prompt specific data.

If WITHOUT, a + or - symbol is available for each target in the program when collecting data and you can manually label each symbol

If WITH, a prompt hierarchy is added and abbreviations corresponding to the prompt will populate for each target in the program when collecting data

Setting up a Prompt Hierarchy

Mastery Criteria

Image Added

NOTE: Setting Mastery criteria will look different depending on the data collection type you choose (i.e., opportunity based vs task analysis, etc). refer to the resource describing data collection types to learn more about the different requirements for setting mastery criteria.

If you did not select the box next to Trigger Maintenance, you will not see Maintenance Mastery Criteria option to complete

Maintenance Mastery Criteria (only if you

are triggering

chose to trigger maintenance)

Targets

Select Add A New Target. These will be what staff collect data for. If you chose Task Analysis, it will say Teaching Steps.

Image Added

Image Added

NOTE: Targets need to be added for any data collection outside of baseline to occur.

If targets existed in the program within the Program Library, they would be available for selection from the SYSTEM TARGETS option. You can also choose to use your own wording when entering targets by typing them into the open text field instead.

Target Objective

Selecting what Objective the target should go into

Image Added

NOTE: These options ONLY display if this is a Goal and Objective Program and/or a Program WITH prompts

Target Prompt

Selecting what prompt counts as correct for that target

Target On Hold

Selecting whether or not you want the target to be available for data collection

Targets can be placed on hold until ready to collect data for said target, thus not allowing the target to be available for data collection. Targets need to be MANUALLY taken off of hold for data collection on that target to occur.

Exercise

Image Added

NOTE: All of these text boxes are editable for your customization. The information written in any of these boxes can be seen both on the website and the mobile app by your direct line staff when collecting data for this program. These are OPTIONAL areas, but can be customized based on how this program is ran for this individual client.

If any wording automatically appears, that is because it was added to the Program when it was made in the Program Library (Rethink or Custom). Any wording can be deleted or edited.
