Students are placed on a toileting schedule. The students receive praise and rewarding items or activities. This procedure has a 100% success rate. Students who have failed toilet training for years and even decades have been successfully trained in an average (median) of 152 days (range 99 to 222 days).<\/p><p>During the off-toilet time, students receive intensive one-to-one instruction in daily living skills such as buttoning, zipping, tying shoes, hand washing, brushing teeth, various chores, and computerized academics. Students are also taught to request the bathroom through the use of words, signs, or picture icons.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b17b23 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b17b23\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1 id=\"u2323-10\" class=\"H4-purple\" style=\"font-weight: 600; font-family: 'Fairplay Display'; color: #512883;\">One to One Instruction in Basic Skills<\/h1><p id=\"u2323-12\" class=\"Paragraph\"><span id=\"u2358\" class=\"actAsDiv normal_text\"><span id=\"u2352\" class=\"actAsDiv clip_frame\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2306 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/judgerc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/living-skills.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"299\" height=\"199\" \/><\/span><\/span>JRC provides one to one instruction to students who need training in skills such as asking for desired items or activities by signing, vocalizing, or exchanging pictures; reading; using JRC\u2019s computers and computer software; self-care skills such as zipping and unzipping, buttoning, tying shoelaces, tying a tie, washing hands, and brushing teeth; and pre-vocational and vocational skills.<\/p><p id=\"u2323-17\" class=\"Paragraph\">JRC staff use the methodologies of\u00a0<a class=\"nonblock\" title=\"ABA definition\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Applied_behavior_analysis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)<\/a>\u00a0which include:<\/p><ul id=\"u2323-34\" class=\"list0 nls-None\"><li id=\"u2323-19\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">discrete trials<\/li><li id=\"u2323-21\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">prompting and fading of prompts<\/li><li id=\"u2323-23\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">immediate rewards for desired responses<\/li><li id=\"u2323-25\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">individually created task analysis sheets<\/li><li id=\"u2323-29\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">timings and\u00a0<a class=\"nonblock\" href=\"http:\/\/judgercblog.org\/blog\/2014\/04\/28\/need-a-progress-monitoring-tool-precision-teaching-is-the-tool-for-you\/\">precision teaching technology<\/a><\/li><li id=\"u2323-31\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">recording prompt levels to measure student progress; and<\/li><li id=\"u2323-33\" class=\"Bulleted-list-text\">making data-based intervention decisions to insure progress and mastery.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c8c788 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5c8c788\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/judgerc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/JRC-05986-qayonn23kgo5zv9dwub41txwwbx0kqew9ug01v6txc.jpg\" title=\"JRC-05986\" alt=\"JRC-05986\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f350c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f350c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1 id=\"u2323-36\" class=\"H4-purple\" style=\"font-weight: 600; font-family: 'Fairplay Display'; color: #512883;\">JRC-created self-instructional software and touchscreen computers to teach basic skills<\/h1><p id=\"u2323-38\" class=\"Paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2311 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/judgerc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/touchscreen.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"177\" height=\"157\" \/>JRC has developed unique software that teaches basic ABA training skills to autistic-like students, including pointing, matching to sample, naming letters and numbers, phonics, counting, telling-time, receptive vocabulary, sight words, using a computer mouse, and choosing a reward using a pictorial menu.
