Action Research Plan
Summary of findings and research questions | Recommended action targeted to findings | Who is responsible for the action? T=Therapist S=Student, C=Caregiver(s) | Who needs to be consulted or informed? | Who will monitor/collect data? | Timeline | Resources | |
1.What factors influence the students’ off-task behaviors. |
|
| T, C:
| Throughout distance learning sessions | Datasheets | ||
1.1 Increase of duration, amount, and complexity of the tasks. | 1.1-1.2 Implement behavioral antecedent interventions such as noncontingent reinforcement or NCR: providing frequent breaks during academic tasks, the high probability sequence, and auditive stimulus (classical music). | 1.1-1.4 T, C | 1.1-1.4 C | 1.1-1.4 T | |||
1.2 A non-stimulating learning environment. |
| Audio | |||||
1.3 Lack of the use of reinforcers to increase on-task behaviors. | 1.3-1.4 Implement behavioral consequent interventions such as Premack Principle and differential negative reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DNRA).

1.4 Parental reinforcement of their children's escape behaviors and avoidance of academic assignments. | | ||||||
2.0 What is the effect of antecedent and consequent strategies on the students’ off-task behaviors? | 2.1 Compare the graphed data of students’ off-task behaviors before and after the implementation of the interventions. | T, C | C | T:
| Throughout distance learning sessions | Datasheets of frequency and graphs | |
3.0 What is the effect of antecedent and consequent strategies on the students’ on-task behaviors? | 3.1 Compare the graphed data of students’ on-task behaviors before and after the implementation of the interventions. | T, C | C | T:
