***crosspost---a correction---Low Performer's Manual Zig Engelmann

[Guest guest]

***crosspost***

I need to add a note/to my previous post on the manual

Please note the original copyright of 1974, as well as the note on the front

cover.

The background information on HOW to teach and HOW to evaluate instruction is

right on.

BUT...if you look at the example programs in the back, in some cases, you may

see the use of aversive techniques. This was fairly common in 1974. IT IS NOT

NOW...physical aversives are NOT OKAY in instruction.

Instruction is through positive reinforcement strategies, or more

neutral/natural feedback that any kid would get.

I have sent a note to Dr. Engelmann on this.

Sincere apologies,

Regina Frey
