What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary but should contain some of the following information:(1) MT is not only firmly rooted in ABA but also includes some developmental social-pragmatic components gleaned from observing parent-child interactions during early language development. (2) DTT is used to teach multiple skills, while MT primarily aims to increase the frequency and quality of language and social communication responses. (3) MT more strongly emphasizes naturally occurring SDs rather than teacher-developed SDs used in DTT. (4) MT uses specified prompts in a least-to-most order and aligns programmed reinforcing consequences more directly with the anticipated naturally occurring reinforcer signaled by the SD. (5) MT avoids a drill and practice format, using only brief quick trials or naturally occurring opportunities for target skill practice.
