How to Teach
Tips for Teachers
Use the handout to review the different instructional procedures. After reviewing the different procedures, try writing an instructional plan to implement complete learning trials for a learning target for one child in your classroom. Be sure to write down the different parts of instructional strategies you will use to implement complete learning trials.
Make sure the your embedded learning opportunities include
(a) an environmental arrangement and/or prompt to elicit the learning target behavior (antecedent),
(b) additional help to elicit the learning target behavior if the behavior does not occur, and
(c) an appropriate response following the child behavior (consequence)
to ensure you’ve implemented a complete learning trial.
Tips from Teachers
I think it made me more intentional when I do address the learning targets – and closing those learning [opportunities to] make complete learning trials.

I was really focused on giving that consequence right away, even if it was just a “Good job” or “You did it!”, just something and then if I wanted to elaborate, I could go do a more specific consequence or a specific praise, but I really just tried to keep focused on doing that complete trial.

One thing that I was so happy with, one of my students after I did all the complete learning trials, one of them actually learned how to write his name.

I found that using the complete learning trials, the kids were more responsive and were looking for the feedback, the immediate feedback, and that was helpful for both of us I think, the child and myself.
