Yesterday was my first day as a Huskie! By far the cutest mascot I’ve ever been associated with! ❤️🤍❤️ Looking forward to teaching an Instructional Methods for ASD/IDD undergrad course and PBIS in Schools & Communities graduate course this semester!

📣 Ethics CEUs for School-based BCBAs! 📣 Tired of wasting your time putting out fires? In this on-demand CEU, Rebecca Folkerts and I apply the Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts to school-based consultative behavior support! Watch here! ⬇️ tinyurl.com/SchoolBCBA

What an AMAZING community organization! Last week I was invited to give a training about autism to staff at the Maryville Crisis Nursery in Chicago – an abuse & neglect prevention program provides up to 72hrs of emergency childcare for families experiencing a crisis. 🤍

@ashleecsmethers Thank you!!

@AmandaBorosh Congratulations!! On both the job but most importantly that cute little snuggle bug you got there! 😍

Super excited to share that I’ll be joining the Northern Illinois University Department of Special & Early Education as a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Special Education this fall! Photo is a live action shot of me 7 weeks postpartum working on my job talk! 😅

@ShawnDatchuk Thank you so much!

@AmandaBorosh Congratulations! 🪇🪅🥳🙌

@ELindstromPhD Thank you!

@da_waterfield Awwww congrats!!!

@AmandaBorosh Congrats!! (I have similar work vibes right now with my 8 week old!)

I had 47 students w/a variety of education majors including: agriculture, foreign language, earth and space, home economics, art, engineering, elementary, and gifted. It was a fun challenge to apply tiered behavior concepts to such an array of future classroom settings.

I know I've said it before, but I will say it again: I love teaching. My students this semester were so bright, engaging, and committed to becoming excellent educators who will use multi-tiered positive behavioral interventions and supports. So proud 🩷 1/2

When you're a new mom and a behavior analyst 🤓 Another example and reminder of how ABA isn't just for autism. #behaviortwitter (do we still use "twitter" in hashtags?) Let's try #behaviorx just in case.

Check out the new episode of The Autism Helper podcast! We talked about best practices for staff training on behavior plans in schools. We cover topics about how to garner buy-in, barriers to training & coaching, and meaningful stakeholder involvement! tinyurl.com/TAHBorosh

@alex_newson_ Amazing! Congratulations!

At the start of my dissertation, people doubted if I could find enough #Autistic educators. My team (Autistic and neurodivergent educators, scholars + researchers) have recruited 10 educators for interviews and counting! The power of community-engaged, neuro-inclusive research!💙

New paper is out! We taught parents of young children with Fragile X or autism to use functional communication training via telehealth-delivered coaching and training modules. 💻 #behaviortwitter

@ac_robers Congratulations!

Better late than never to announce that I’m currently completing my postdoctoral training at the Munroe-Meyer Institute in Omaha! During this fellowship, I will provide school-based ABA consultation & conduct ASD evaluations. This opportunity is a perfect blend of psych + ABA 🥰

So very proud of my friend and the incredible disability awareness program she has launched for young children in schools! With support from other special education doc students and disabled Purdue students, the program has flourished!

@AmyCamp01732262 @mattbrodhead @behaviorpodcast The district would benefit from an OBM expert (for many things). Specifically doing a behavior systems analysis would be HUGE in both project size and impact.

@AmyCamp01732262 @mattbrodhead @behaviorpodcast The district is now (finally) in trouble with the state & scrambling to get everyone trained & a strong documentation system set up. But there are sooo many systemic barriers to providing 2 full days of training to literally *thousands* of teachers & paras.

Most recent data from the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights estimates that over 71,204 students were physically restrained during the 2017-2018 school year, representing a 20.24% increase since the 2015-2016 school year.

I’m on the academic job market! Interested in assistant professor and postdoc positions in SPED and/or ABA! Passionate about using participatory research approaches to support schools in assessing & intervening w/challenging behavior at all tiers. 📈 #behaviortwitter #sped
