Errorless Teaching
Episode description
Errorless teaching is an instructional strategy that ensures a student responds correctly. Here, we discuss why errorless teaching is important and how we can use it to benefit our learners. It’s essentially a way to prompt before a response so that an error is not made. In other words, the prompting happens right after the instruction, even before the learner can make any kind of response, so they get to the correct one.
The goal here is to avoid having our learners practice errors so they get things right on the first try. The first step in the process is to establish a baseline to assess where the student is at and what they’re capable of. We provide some examples of what errorless teaching looks like and tips to help learners succeed. We also discuss how to choose the right prompt, why it’s important to make sure your prompt matches your SD, and how to fade prompts within sessions.
