The Teacher Uses Prompting
Teachers use prompting to remind students of the behavioural expectations for a familiar task or routine. Its purpose is to prevent problem behaviours from occurring.
The teacher
- identities a familiar task or routine immediately before it occurs
- explicitly teaches correct procedures using action-oriented and value-based language.
The students
- are ‘shown’ what to do as opposed to being ‘told’ what not to do
- have a more positive outlook on their learning experience because they do not need to be corrected as frequently.
