Robert Schramm is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), with a Master’s degree in Special Education. An American, living and working in Germany,
Robert is an Autism intervention author and the lead behavior analyst for
Knospe-ABA, Europe’s largest ABA/VB autism intervention institute.
Knospe-ABA uses the principles and procedures of behavior analysis espoused
by the biggest names in ABA/VB to guide the education of over 200 children
worldwide. Additionally, Robert can be seen presenting his practical approach
to the science of behaviorism in workshops and conferences throughout the
world. For more information about Robert, Knospe-ABA or Robert\'s very popular
Verbal Behavior Teaching Manual \"Educate Toward Recovery: Turning the
Tables on Autism\" you can go to www.lulu.com/knospe-aba.
“Educate Toward Recovery: Turning the Tables on Autism” is commonly the
first book recommended to others by its readers. Specifically written to share
the benefits of the most modern and advanced procedures of Applied Behavior Analysis, “ETR” offers a clear and well-developed insight into the “how” and
“why” a child with autism is best served by the Verbal Behavior approach to
ABA. Do not let the name fool you. Educate Toward Recovery does not
suggest that the concept of recovery is attainable for every child or even
necessary for a child\'s happiness. However, it does discuss what recovery
is (as opposed to the term \"cure\") and why certain procedures common in
traditional ABA programs might be teaching a child discrete skills but not
necessarily teaching him in the direction of recovery. Although extremely
beneficial for professionals as well, parents are the true winners when it
comes to the information of this book. ETR is overflowing with real world
examples of how you can better understand your child while teaching him to
better understand the social world. A child\'s interactions are never neutral.
They are learning experiences that either teach him closer to or farther away
from the concept of recovery. Understanding the principles of ABA and the
procedural recommendations of Verbal Behavior can quickly allow you to turn
the table on autism\'s effects. Through Chapters dealing with The Possible
Purposes of Behavior, Increasing Positive Behavior Choices while Decreasing
Problem Behavior, Teaching the “Control Child”, The Ins and Outs of the
Discrete Trial Teaching Method, Teaching with Motivation, The Benefits of
Errorless Learning, Natural Environment Teaching, Teaching Non-verbal
Children to Speak, Increasing Functional Language, Toilet Training, ABA/VB
and the Public School System, The Ethics of ABA, How to Become your Child’s
True Expert, and much, much, more, ETR can teach you how to guide your
child’s education with the use of commonly accepted, scientifically validated,
principles and procedures. For anyone considering ABA or wondering if they
should upgrade their current ABA program to incorporate the Verbal Behavior
approach, Educate Toward Recovery is an invaluable source of information and
insight.
Also available at www.lulu.com/knospe-aba are several free downloads about
ABA/VB. These papers written by Robert Schramm offer a wonderful glimpse of
his ability to take a complex subjects like Behavioral Autism Intervention and
make it easily understable and usable to professionals and parents alike.
