You Are Reviewing the Data You Have Collected for the Past 2 Weeks on Tyler, a 4th Grade Student with ASD. You Have Been Using a Token

Question

You are reviewing the data you have collected for the past 2 weeks on Tyler, a 4th grade student with ASD. You have been using a token economy to reinforce Tyler's completion of an abbreviated version of a worksheet with 10 math problems. For the past 5 days, Tyler has independently completed his 10 math problems with his choice of reinforcers on a choice board (walking outside, jumping on the trampoline in the gym playing Jenga, or watching monster truck videos on the iPad). Based on the data, what is NOT something you should discuss as a next step for Tyler with your supervising teacher? Choose one Add another reinforcer to Tyler's choice board. He is probably starting to get bored. o Try using the same reinforcers and token system for 15 math problems instead of 10, so that Tyler is completing the same amount of work as the other students in the class. Use a similar token economy to help Tyler complete another challenging academic task for him, like reading comprehension questions. Start reducing the amount of reinforcement that Tyler receives to increase his independence
