The Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP): An Overview
$20.00
A presentation by Dr. Carl Sundberg delivered at the 2018 Michigan Autism Conference
Brand: FoxyLearning
Description
Typically the primary focus of an intervention program for children with autism should be on the development of effective language and social skills. There clearly are several other areas in need, such as self-care, visual motor skills, academics, fine and gross motor, etc., but language and social skills are typically the most significant deficits for children with autism. The failure to conduct an appropriate assessment results in one of the biggest problems in programs that serve children with autism: An inappropriate curriculum. Our first task is to identify the existing skills of each child. Our next task is to identify the language, social, behavior and learning barriers that are preventing more rapid learning. The VB-MAPP is a tool that is easy to use and will provide teachers, parents, and staff with the necessary information to develop an appropriate intervention program. The VB-MAPP is an assessment tool based on B.F. Skinner’s (1957) analysis of verbal behavior and typical developmental milestones. This presentation will provide the attendee an overview and an understanding of the importance of incorporating Skinner’s analysis of verbal behavior into language assessment.

Excellent! Love Dr. Sundberg’s CE’s, he makes them fun and engaging and loved that he thoroughly explained the functionality of the assessment.
Entertaining speaker with a great perspective on how to implement and explain VBMAPP to challenging parents
Interesting and concise video that covers all the basic VBMAPP information and the reasoning for how the test is formatted.
This is a great CEU for understanding the basics of the VB-MAPP assessment
I like it!
