International Development Grant Awardees

2010: Jeremy H. Greenberg (The Children's Institute of Hong Kong)

As the Director of The Children's Institute of Hong Kong (TCI), Jeremy H. Greenberg has been tasked with the provision of educational and behavior analytic services to English-speaking students with special needs. TCI works closely with The Harbour School (THS), a kindergarten and primary international school, to provide inclusive opportunities in every aspect of the general education curriculum, socially and academically. The partnership with THS is a unique program of inclusion for the South East Asia region.

As TCI develops and matures, it must establish the systems and curricula to ensure the success of both organizations. Social skills are constantly being targeted along with many other academic objectives. As TCI uses verbal behavior analysis for instructional decisions to accomplish student objectives effectively, the school has a great need for curricula that will enable the systematic pursuit of fluency and generality of academic goals for all students.

The SABA grant will be used to fund the entire collection of resources from Morningside Press that will fulfill this need. This curriculum will benefit the current student body as well as those who may join the school in years to come. Furthermore, since Morningside Press is an organization affiliated with applied behavior analysis, the grant will be "recycled" back into the field. Everyone wins!

Greenberg is excited for the successes the students will achieve as TCI employs behavioral instruction with new materials.
