In this episode of Autism Academy 360, Lisa tackles the challenge of managing reinforcers for students with unique interests by introducing the concept of reinforcement bins. She explains how organizing preferred reinforcers in labeled bins can save time and improve classroom efficiency. By storing these bins in a central location, educators can easily access the items when needed.

Lisa also recommends a weekly routine where students select 5-10 preferred items to keep in their bins, ensuring the reinforcers remain relevant and motivating. This strategy enhances engagement and supports consistent reinforcement practices throughout the school day.
