#4 So Many Lessons, So Little Time

<p>Dr. John Eshleman has dedicated his life to making our science successful for all. Standing in Ogden Lindsley's wish for the use of plain English in Precision Teaching, he has the ability to express complex scientific phenomena in understandable language.</p> <p>John joins us in this episode to discuss a variety of topics from the richness of SAFMEDS to his explanation of Ogden's “Common Language for Analyzing Behavior”. He shares his views on how our rich underpinnings have been worded down in a rush to train behavior technicians in order to make the demands for frontline staff for the autism field. He also questions the reason behind the initiative to limit the BSBA certifications to North America, and identifies Steve Graf's dissertation topic on word comments.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>HIGHLIGHTS</p> <p> </p> <p>04:41 Who were John's early influences that led him to pursue a career in Psychology and Precision Teaching?</p> <p>13:42 John on his career after graduate school, including his projects with Aubrey Daniels & Associates</p> <p>23:34 On the benefits of using manual flashcards </p> <p>26:18 What were some of the applications that John has used SAFMEDS for?</p> <p>31:18 John describes Steve Graf's dissertation topic on word responses</p> <p>41:01 On the use of plain English in Precision Teaching</p> <p>58:06 On the current state of ABA</p> <p>1:17:07 On the current state and future hope for Precision Teaching</p> <p>1:29:18 Helpful resources for students pursuing Precision Teaching and charting</p> <p> </p> <p>RESOURCES</p> <p> </p> <p>Learn more about the Standard Celeration Society on their Facebook Page: <a href='https://www.facebook.com/celeration.org/'>https://www.facebook.com/celeration.org/</a>  </p> <p>Learn more about the Standard Celeration Society on their website: <a href='https://celeration.org/'>https://celeration.org/</a> </p> <p>Check out Carl Binder’s The Fluency Channel on Facebook: <a href='https://www.facebook.com/groups/189260084444139/'>https://www.facebook.co
