Based on research into Video Modeling conducted by Autism SA and the Disabilities Research Unit at the University of Adelaide in Adelaide, South Australia, you can use iModeling to create videos to teach skills to a person who is a visual learner. You can teach almost any skill using iModeling including literacy skills, compliment giving, play skills, turn-taking, fitness skills, conversation skills and day-to-day life skills.
Research behind iModeling shows that:
• Video Modeling can teach social skills to people with Autism Spectrum Disorders and other disabilities.
• People can retain the skills taught .
• They can utilise them in other settings, such as home and school.
• People most likely to respond to Video Modeling are those who enjoy being filmed, or who like watching themselves or others on film.
• Video Modeling generally has been shown to have success for children, teenagers and adults.
