Discrete Trial Training (DTT)
Discrete Trial Training (DTT) is a structured teaching method used mainly for children with autism. It involves breaking down skills into small, manageable steps and practicing each one individually. The process includes a clear instruction, providing an opportunity for the learner to respond, and giving immediate reinforcement or feedback based on the response. This systematic approach helps reinforce learning, improve specific skills, and increase motivation through consistent practice and positive reinforcement. DTT promotes learning in a controlled, predictable environment, making it easier to track progress and adjust teaching strategies as needed.
