Evolving ABA 008 | Identifying & Cultivating Community with Rashida Biera

Join Dr. Nasiah Cirincione-Ulezi as she brings on special guest Rashida Biera, MA, BCBA, founder of Hue-Man Expressions. They will share a heavy focus on community, especially as people of color. This can come in different forms as a professional. We may find our community with other behavior analysts, it may come from other professions we interact with, or a combination of the two. To succeed as a behavior analyst, we need to identify and cultivate a community.

Operant Innovations 046 | Open Educational Resources: Expanding on Accessibility Part 2

This episode is worth 1 BACB Ethics CEs: https://abatechnologies.com/products/podcast-ces

In a previous segment, Open Educational Resources were defined and common misconceptions were dispersed. Explore why Open Educational Resources are sparse in behavior analysis, barriers to creating more, and ways that you can access them. Given these barriers, breaking them down may feel like an impossible feat. Recommendations on how to create Open Educational Resources is discussed with reference to the impact practitioners and students can be an active part of making behavior analysis accessible.

Learning Checklist

  1. Describe the systemic factors that impact the availability of OERs in the field.
  2. State where to find OERs.
  3. Explain the process of creating and disseminating quality OERs.
  4. Describe steps behavior analysts can take to promote the publication and use of more OERs in practice.

A common issue we encounter as practitioners is accessing resources we need to develop effective programs, teach future behavior analysts, and expand on our own understanding within the field. When we hear the term “open educational resources,” there are many different ideas that come to mind, including questions regarding the validity of these resources. After an introduction to what Open Educational Resources are, misconceptions about them and the impact that they have on improving accessibility of education in behavior analysis are discussed. Open Educational Resources are one way we are making the science that is about everyone, for everyone and breaking down systemic barriers in the field.

Learning Checklist

  1. State the components and definition of open educational resources (OERs).

  2. Describe the impact OERs have on fostering accessibility of behavior analysis.

  3. Explain how to identify quality OER resources.
