In this episode, I'm taking a deep dive into the key differences between teaching and prompting—and why understanding this distinction is essential for effective instruction. Whether you're in a classroom, therapy setting, or working with learners one-on-one, prompt fading is a powerful tool to foster independence and skill mastery.
I'll walk you through exactly what prompt fading is, why it's critical (and non-negotiable), and how to implement it effectively—without overcomplicating the process.
If you're worried that your students are becoming prompt-dependent, this episode will help you fade support the right way—and give you tools that make it easy to start.
