2 Everything is bigger in Texas... 54,098 Texas students receiving special education program under autism eligibility Texas Education Agency, ,316 Texans with autism below 22 years of age Texas Council on Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorders, million total student population Texas Tribune, ,227 school districts, including 202 charter schools Texas Tribune, % of districts have less than 3000 students, 67% haves less than 1600 students, and 55.1% have less than 1000 students Texas Tribune, 2015
3 Etiology of Autism After more than 50 years of study, no causes have been identified. There needs to be a geometric increase in research funding to determine the causes of autism. - Lee Grossman, President of the Autism Society of America, 2002

13 Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Autism Grant Program: Board-certified Behavior Analyst Training for teachers/paraprofessionals Teachers/paraprofessionals can be in public or private institutions, teaching grades pre- Kindergarten through 12th grade
14 UTSA s award aims to: Train 960 teachers/paraprofessionals in evidence-based ABA techniques and meet the requirements for the 40-hr RBT training as specified by the BACB Impact approximately 5094 students with ASD through teacher/paraeducator professional development
15 Free-Operant Field Experiences
16 What is a MakerSpace? What is a Maker? Text Novice Behaviors in a MakerSpace
17 Components of a MakerSpace
18 MakerSpace extension... Pooling resources Project-based learning Development of a verbal community Reinforcing to members of the community Aversive to outsiders?
19 Project-Based Learning Collectively, we have identified 4 design principles that appear to be especially important: A. Defining learning-appropriate goals that lead to deep understanding; A. Providing scaffolds such as embedded teaching, teaching tools, sets of contrasting cases, and beginning with problem-based learning activities before initiating projects; A. Ensuring multiple opportunities for formative self-assessment and revision; and A. Developing social structures that promote participation and a sense of agency. -Barron et al. (1998)
20 Project-Based Learning Defining features: Authentic content, authentic assessment, teacher facilitation but not direction, explicit educational goals (Moursund, 1999) Foster the development of students minds by engaging them in sophisticated and substantial opportunities for deep understanding (Blumenfeld et al., 1991) Authentic "driving" questions, a community of inquiry, and the use of cognitive tools (Krajcik et al., 1994) "Expeditionary Learning" adds features of comprehensive school improvement, community service, and multidisciplinary themes (Outward Bound, 1999) Real projects (Tretten & Zachariou, 1997)
21
22 BACB-approved intensive practicum Two BCBAs to supervise a maximum of eight graduate students (1:4) Each graduate student assigned a child from the community in need of behavior-analytic intervention Staggered sessions allow for a 2:1 Bx Tech/child ratio Founded in 2013 ShaperSpace founded 2015
23 Emphasis on Generating Project Questions: What are the effects of teaching motor imitation with and without manipulatives? Can a microphone be used to enhance the volume of speech? To what extent does Corrective Reading - Comprehension increase derivational stimulus control over intraverbal behavior? How do you increase variability of mands for a child with a limited verbal repertoire? Can we transfer control from signed echoics to signed intraverbal responding?
