About this course

In this course, you will learn about the basics of Pivotal Response Training. You will learn how implementation of this intervention can complement a learner’s play and social activities, infusing it with the attention to pivotal skills, and the right dose of structure to make “work feel like play and play actually be instructional” to the development of communication, language, play, and social behaviors. Implementing PRT strategies can help a learner develop confidence and motivation. Offering choices, integrating preferred interests, simplifying and modifying tasks, reinforcing attempts, and providing natural and contingent reinforcement are beneficial procedures for motivation.
