To customize a skill acquisition program for a Client, a program must first be added to the Client Program tab of that client’s profile from the Program Library tab. The resource below will review the areas of a program that can be further edited for customization.
...
4)Select the program from the left-hand side and select EDITto edit all areas of the program. You can also RENAME the title of the program is if needed.
The rest of this resource will review each area that can/should be customized for the client prior to any data collection.
...
b. Choose whether or not you’d like the program to be ran as a GOALS only or GOALS and OBJECTIVES
NOTE: If you choose Goals and Objectives, targets will need to be added to each objective when you get to the target area of the program. Targets within an objective all need to be mastered before targets in the next objective will be available for data collection
c. Select if you would like to trigger maintenance
...
e. If you would like to apply automatic phase change lines to populate on graphs for this program.
IMPORTANT: If you select the option above, it would mean that phase change lines will automatically populate on a graph when a TARGET IS MASTERED and when a TARGET IS REINTRODUCED FROM MAINTENANCE (on the date that occurred)
...
f. If the you chose the program to have objectives,customize, delete pre-written, and/or add objectives.
...
...
g.Choose the data collection type (as seen in image below).
*DATA COLLECTION OPTIONS: opportunity based, task analysis (forward, backward, total), duration, frequency, and Interval (partial, whole, momentary time sampling)
...
h. Choose whether or not you want to collect prompt specific data or just correct/incorrect (as seen in image below).
...
*If your administrative staff added a list of prompts to the company account, these would automatically display when you select WITH PROMPTS and you can edit further (i.e. choose which ones you want to use vs which ones you do not)
*IMPORTANT: prompts need to be listed in order from least restrictive to most restrictive (Example: Independent, Gestural, Partial Physical, and Full Physical)
i. Set the Mastery Criteria for the program and the Maintenance Mastery Criteria (as seen in image below)
*Maintenance Mastery Criteria will not populate if you previously chose NOT to trigger maintenance -step c of this resource)
...
j. Add the targets OR teaching steps to the program
This is required for any data collection to occur (data is not collected on program goals or objectives, rather targets WITHIN those goals and/or objectives)
You can select the button SYSTEM TARGETS or SYSTEM STEPS, and pick from a pre-created list that was added when making the program in the program library tab OR TYPE the name of the target/step in the target name/teaching step name field, OR BOTH (add from list and edit further)
...
Adding Targets with a Goals and Objectives Program: If you chose the program to be ran as goals and objectives, an additional field would be required when making the target list. The objective column is asking you to add the target to an objective created above.
Important Remember, if a program has objectives you have to master all targets within one objective before targets from the next objective will open for data collection
...
Adding Targets with a WITH Prompts (prompt specific data) Program: If you chose the program to be ran where prompt specific data is collected, an additional column titled Correct Prompt will populate when making the target list. This is asking you to identify which prompt would count as correct from the prompts you added above.
If you wanted to run the program with prompt fading, you may initially choose the target to count as correct with the most restrictive prompt and then manually move it to the next less restrictive prompt once the target met mastery criteria (noted above) for that prompt level
If you wanted only a independent response to count as correct, but still have data collected on prompts used to get a correct response, you would choose independent to be the correct prompt (make sure you put independent as a prompt in your list of prompts made in the program)
...
Targets on HOLD
A target can be placed on hold if you are not ready to have data collected for that specific target. Staff will only be able to collect data on targets off of hold.
Please note, targets need to be MANUALLY taken off of hold for staff to view the target.
