determine mastery vs lack of mastery, use if
unsure if the learner will be successful at learning
new repertoire
Placement tests - answer sampling of various skill
levels, can indicate where to start instruction, not
,the best at identifying entry level repertoire, give
detail on skill area
Pinpointing - answer a curriculum based
assessment approached used in precision
teaching/aba, sample performance of skills are
evaluated, best placement test for determining
entry level repertoire.
Drilling down even deeper(relating to entry level
repertoire) - answer conduct a component analysis
to identify more basic skills if the earner cannot
perform the pinpoint
Precision teaching - answer A system for precisely
defining and continuously measuring dimensional
features of behavior and analyzing behavioral data
on the SCC to make timely and effective data
based decisions to accelerate behavioral
repertoires.
Chart, try try again, decide
Critical features of precision teaching - answer
accelerating behavioral repertoires, precise
behavior definitions, continuous observation
dimensional measurement, SCC, and timely and
effective data based decisions.
,psychomotor learning - answer kinesthetic
repertoires, chains, and responses
psychomotor learning - answer learning that
involves how to move certain muscles in a precise

form/topography
simple cognitive learning - answer verbal
repertoires, sequences(serial memory algorithms,
paired association, multiple discriminations(be
familair with these terms)
complex cognitive learning - answer strategies,
principles, concepts,
Component/composite skills - answer 3 tiers: tool
skills, components, composites
tool skills - answer minimal responses that are at
the core of many if not all of the skills an concepts
inherent in the content area. the most basic
fundamental skill.
component skills - answer building blocks tat
depend on 1+ tool skill, relative concepts and are
not static

the learned unit completely changes, every
example of a learned unit has all critical attributes
Variable attributes - answer accompanies but
doesn't define the thing being taught, not all
required for positive reinforcement, often the
source of stimulus control problems in instruction,
if changed just a new example, purposely
manipulated
Uncontrolled attributes - answer accompanies but
doesn't define the thing being taught, not required
for positive reinforcement, often the source of
stimulus control problems in instruction, if
changed just anew example, purposely left
