VIDEO MODELING AT ITS BEST

Video modeling is an evidence-based practice that can be a powerful teaching strategy for children learning new skills. It can be effective for use from elementary through high school for some learners. It can be effective in developing skills in the following areas: behavior, play, social, communication and academics. Some children would benefit greatly by using these strategies at home and in school providing an advantage of teachers and parents/caregivers supporting the same skill development with the same expectations as the child imitates the skills that were watched on the video.

Mary Beth Rochin Palo is the Mom of a child with autism, founder of Watch Me Learn and creator of effective video-based instruction. For more information on the products she has created go to www.watchmelearn.com
