• In Event: Improving Learning from PK-16

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the efficacy of video modeling combined with teacher praise in fostering turn-taking skills among preschoolers in inclusive settings. Employing a multiple probe across participants design, three preschoolers will undergo baseline, intervention, and maintenance phases. Video modeling sessions, featuring peers engaging in turn-taking activities, will be alternated with teacher praise. Three participants will be recruited for this study, to determine if a child meets the criteria, the researcher will conduct an indirect assessment of the participants through teacher interviews and direct classroom observation. The data collected through event recording will be analyzed via Microsoft Excel to determine the intervention's impact on turn- taking behavior. Study findings will contribute to literature on effective interventions for preschoolers, offering insights into employing video modeling and teacher praise in inclusive educational environments.
