Support Strategies

Support strategies are things teachers can do to make it more likely the student will use the acquired skill in a novel context. For example, a student may know a conversational script but need a visual reminder like a gesture or symbol that can be paired with the natural cue and later faded (so the natural cue reminds the student to use the script).

Prompting

Prompts are additional teaching techniques used to increase the likelihood of desired behaviors when the individual isn’t responding to the general instruction.
