How to Improve Problem Solving in Autism with After-Action Analysis Reports


Listen Later

In today's episode I want to share a strategy that has become a huge tool for students to learn how to problem solve social situations.  I've talked about it in the past and describe it in more detail in this post.  Traditionally, in the literature we have about it, it's called a social autopsy.  However, I have found that many students (and sometimes teachers) hate this name.  Because those students are really perceptive.  Who wants to have their behavior autopsied after all!

So one of them suggested the name After-Action Reports.  So I'm going to start referring to them as After-Action Analysis Reports. And it's the analysis that is really key to helping students learn to problem solve.

Highlights of Episode 72
  • Find out what a social autopsy is and how it can be used in a social skills program
  • Learn how social autopsies, or after-action analysis (AAA) reports, can help your students problem solve social situations
  • Discover 3 key elements of AAA reports that you must have to help them be effective for problem solving
  • Learn how AAA reports can also save you, as an educator, time by serving as a data source for behavior
  • And grab a free set of of social autopsies or after-action reports from the free resource library --see the link to the post below

  • If you are looking for a deeper dive into teaching social skills, we have a whole course on it in the Special Educator Academy.
