Mike Rubio and Dan Lowery

Better late than never,  Mike and Dan kick off the 3rd season of ABA on Tap. Thank you all out there for your continued support and listenership.

In an effort to advance the 'lab to living room' approach, Mike and Dan give a historical account of their current practices in early intervention. Given that these particular programs take a 'preventative' edge in their purpose and objective, the idea of blending ABA technologies and methodologies with best practices in Early Childhood Education takes the forefront. Young children in these early intervention programs, at least in this case, are not diagnosed with any condition, just identified as 'at-risk'. Without careful and considerate pause from professionals, these children might receive traditional, standard ABA treatment otherwise cultivated and specified for children on the spectrum. This situation is examined closely as the impetus to innovate and progress the idea of ABA and what it looks like in planning, practice and further data collection. Part I will provide a more personal and historical account of the references, experiences and concepts that led to joint attention as an important correlate to imitation, but lacking focused examination or useful implementation as an important aspect of programming thus far.

Sit back, relax and always analyze responsibly.
