Teaching Advanced Learner Repertoires

An “advanced learner” is someone who is usually cooperative across a variety of contexts, usually tolerates brief delays, denials, and corrections, and is at least beginning to develop independent task completion. He may have worked through much of the programming provided in Teaching Good Learner Repertoires (Ward, 2013), and is now ready for the next step. The current book guides teachers in strategies to: establish functional independence; improve spontaneity; expand upon contexts in which the student cooperates with teacher expectations; strengthen self-calming; maximize the benefits of inclusive education, and more.
