The Workshop:
Vince Carbone will describe the behavioural approach to teaching communication skills to children with autism and other developmental disabilities. This approach is based on B. F. Skinner’s analysis of verbal behaviour and the research of Michael, Sundberg, Partington, and others.

Participants in this workshop will learn:
• To conduct a Behavioural Language Assessment
• To select the most appropriate form of communication for a child or adult (vocal, signing, pointing to or exchanging pictures, or activating an augmentative device)
