Video Models:

Can this skill be appropriately depicted in a video model?

Consider how you might portray the appropriate alternative behavior(s) in a video modeling sequence.  For example, if the student is inclined to pick his nose during class, a video model might depict him (or a different peer model) sitting at his desk with his hands in his lap (or holding a writing instrument –clearly not picking his nose!), then requesting a bathroom break, then entering the bathroom, wiping his nose, and returning promptly to class. 

Have you task analyzed this skill to ensure that your video clearly depicts every key step that comprises the skill?

Who will you use as “actors” in this video – will the targeted student be included in the video?

Will you shoot this video from the perspective of the student (first person) or from the third person perspective?

Will you narrate the video?

How will you ensure that the student experiences opportunities to not only review the skill via the video model, but to also engage in repeated rehearsal of the skill across multiple contexts?

Will the student be able to review the video just prior to expected performance of that skill (priming)?
