About the ABA Program Companion 3.0 (ABA-PC3) Online Software
The ABA-PC3 software offers an online curriculum development environment for ABA teams. This is the newest version of a curriculum development tool specifically designed for ABA programs that helps with nearly every phase of the program creation process from selecting individual target performances to writing detailed step-by-step procedures to generating data sheets, entering data, and producing graphs. There’s also a program review module that structures the process of revising procedures based on observation and student performance measures.
The unique software has a built-in library of 650 programs and over 4000 individual learning targets, all fully customizable by the user for their particular circumstances. Users can quickly search the library using keywords and select appropriate programs or write their own, rapidly building a comprehensive set of student programs. The set can be implemented or used to quickly create multistep sequences of programs for a variety of settings and instructional purposes.
The software helps focus and streamline the process of building an individualized comprehensive curriculum for students in an ABA program and provides a common workspace to enhance collaboration among different service providers on the special education team. In addition to the program library and learning targets, a variety of easy to use tools are included that help accomplish essential ABA implementation tasks including:
• Automatically-generated data sheets customized for each student
