Raise your hand if you love the sound of your own voice on video! Crickets Yeah, us too. (Not.) It's about as enjoyable as getting a root canal, but hey, it's one of those "necessary evils" in the world of ABA supervision.
What's that you say? You'd rather watch videos of us making fools of ourselves? Well, don't hesitate to drop us a line, and we'll consider it. Wink
Our supervisor, the wise Shir, has deemed client observations an underrated gem in the supervision experience. And why not? This is where you, dear ABA trainees, come to life and unleash your inner superstar! Plus, we get to witness the incredible potential of your clients. Talk about a win-win!
Allow us to break down the fabulous benefits of watching a client observation video with your supervisor:
1. Your client's not around, so you can chat about their behavior and future care plans while preserving their dignity. We live for that!
2. Hone your therapy skills with invaluable feedback from your supervisor. Mastering top-notch therapy is vital for boosting your client's positive outcomes and for teaching others the art of impeccable ABA therapy.
3. Dive into the nitty-gritty of client behavior, data collection accuracy, and future program directions – all based on real observations, not second-hand anecdotes. Hallelujah for systematic, data-driven approaches!
But wait, you're not a video wizard with mad editing skills, and you're using your trusty phone to record. How on earth do you score those envy-inducing client observation clips? Fear not! Our dynamic duo, Evolve Behavior trainees Summer and Alex, have got your back with their hilarious how-to video!
So, buckle up and embrace the epic adventure that is the client observation in ABA supervision. You might just find it's not as dreadful as you thought!
