Direct Instruction
Developed by Ogden Lindsley
Precision Teaching
Has a clear beginning and end
Discrete Trial
Also known as the Keller Plan
Personalized System of
Instruction
Non-intensive Teaching
Incidental Teaching
This is a strategy that teaches
learners ways to functionally
communicate
FCT
All behaviors must be in the
learners repertoire

to receive reinforcement

Precision Teaching (PT)
Karen’s professor has arranged their class for the semester to be
self-paced. She only has to go in for a lecture if she finished the unit as a
reinforcer. Karen’s professor is using which teaching methodology?
Personalized System of Instruction
Jerry walks into a classroom. He observes small groups engaged in choral
responding and fast-paced instruction. What type of educational
methodology is Jerry most likely observing?
Direct Instruction
Mary gives her student attention every 5 minutes regardless of what he is
doing. What type of antecedent intervention is Mary most likely engaging
in?
NCR
Aaron wants to teach his client to mand. He hands his client a coloring
book but no crayons. When his client needs the crayons, hopefully he will
be motivated to ask for them. Aaron is using his client’s interests in the
natural environment. What type of teaching methodology is Aaron using?
Incidental Teaching
Alisha’s 5th grade teacher focuses on fluency and precision for learning
math. He uses a standard Celeration Chart to plot each student’s
progress. Which teaching methodology is the teacher using?
Precision Teaching
George is in high school. His teachers let him work at his own pace and
test for unit mastery before moving him to the next unit. They also use
proctors. What type of instructional methodology is being utilized in
George’s high school?
Personalized System Instruction
Margaret wants to teach her client to name shapes. She sets out 3 cards
and gives an Sd of “touch circle”. She then provides a prompt if necessary
and reinforcement if the learner responds correctly. She then waits a brief
time, lays out a set of 3 cards and gives another Sd. What type of
instructional methodology is Margaret using?
Discrete Trial Training / Teaching
Adam often tantrums when he wants attention. The technician has been
teaching Adam to say “hello” when he wants attention instead of
tantruming. What antecedent intervention is the technician using with
Adam?
FCT
Zachary does not like to do his homework but loves to play video games.
His Mom says “first do your homework, then you can play your video

Premack Principle
Casey knows that Liat will often engage in problem behaviors when
learning new tasks. Before asking Liat to learn something new, Casey has
Liat touch her nose, touch her head, and touch her toes which are all
things that Liat can do easily. What antecedent intervention is Casey
using with Liat?
