Description: This INTERACTIVE and HANDS-ON workshop will provide an excellent opportunity for individuals to learn a well-defined, systematic self-monitoring intervention and motivational system. Participants attending this workshop will leave with a comprehensive tool in hand to implement immediately. This session will explore peer-reviewed research that supports the implementation of self-monitoring systems for individuals of various ages and developmental levels. A discussion of self-monitoring procedures incorporating a "match" component will be presented, with specific focus on the Self & Match System, a user-friendly, easy to implement, empirically-supported system. Participants in this training will acquire a systematic guide to planning self-monitoring systems, a Self & Match manual with substantial training materials, and access to Self & Match Maker, an online Self & Match form creator. Participants will strengthen their knowledge of necessary considerations prior to implementing any self-monitoring or motivational system.
The Self & Match System has been used internationally to support individuals with emotional behavior disorders, autism, learning disabilities, and unidentified students in general education. Self & Match can be incorporated into individualized behavior systems, class-wide, and school-wide management procedures as a part of SWPBIS and has been successfully implemented in a variety of settings; including (but not limited to): public and private schools, clinics, homes, and recreational settings. |
Learning Objectives: *Identify the research-based benefits of self-monitoring
*Effectively apply, individualize, and monitor progress of a self-monitoring system
*Identify the necessary components of an effective motivational system
*Identify the importance of pre-treatment planning on the effectiveness of intervention
*Identify the basic components of the Self & Match System
*Systematically individualize an intervention based on collaborative and critical thinking
*Create a Self & Match self-monitoring system to implement in their workplace
*Systematically consider function in the development of self-monitoring interventions and reinforcement opportunities |
Activities: During the course of this hands-on workshop, participants will strengthen the skills needed to effectively develop self-monitoring interventions incorporating a match component. This workshop will review the purpose/rationale of self-monitoring, the benefits of self-monitoring, the Self & Match system, and consider the role of technology in supporting this behavioral intervention. Additionally, participants will interactively complete a systematic considerations guide prior to implementation to lead them on their way to creating their own Self & Match System. The format combines lecture, small group collaboration, whole group responding utilizing interactive responding, and discussion. Core content will be taught through a combination of lecture, video examples, data analysis, and guided practice. |
Audience: This workshop is designed for behavior analysts, consultants, school psychologists, autism specialists, special educators, teachers, administrators, parents, and/or others who support individuals from pre-K to 21 in school, home, or clinic settings as well as adults that are interested in increasing appropriate behaviors. Great workshop for individuals and/or teams! |
