QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
1. Using self-management training to ensure that a generalized response
occurs.An example would be, after teaching a lesson, a student teacher
evaluates the lesson by checking a list of effective teacher behaviors
(e.g., gain attention of the students , provide review, state goal, use
signals for group responses) used during the lesson, determines a
percentage of behaviors exhibited, and graphs them. -correct answer -
Mediate generalization
