This course provides students with the opportunity to apply principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA) in everyday settings. Students will learn and practice ABA techniques such as implementing behavior change procedures, identifying the functions of behavior, and collecting and analyzing data to make data-informed decisions.
Course content also includes an introduction to academic, communication, and adaptive behavior assessments, with an emphasis on practical application. Students will be required to complete projects outside of class that connect course concepts to real-world situations, reinforcing the use of ABA strategies in daily life.
