Using PT and the SCC in the "real world"

Published: Tue, 05/07/19

I'm psyched to be interviewing Dr. Kerri Milyko this week. We plan on talking about using Precision Teaching and the Standard Celeration Chart in practical, "real world," settings.

Kerri is the founder of The Precision Teaching Learning Center in the Reno, NV area. If you're not familiar with her background, here is her bio:

Dr. Milyko is one of the newest leaders within her specialty: Precision Teaching (PT). Within just a few years, she helped develop a learning center, executed various research projects, was appointed as Contributing Editor of the scientific journal of Precision Teaching, and was elected to serve as Vice President then President of the governing agency of Precision Teaching. All of this was accomplished while she was working on a doctoral degree at the University of Nevada, Reno (2011). She now supervises both Tampa centers, teaches other professionals to incorporate PT into their treatment, and teaches graduate students as an adjunct professor.

Kerri and I chatted on the phone a few weeks ago about this interview, and in hindsight, I should have simply recorded that conversation and called it good. What I mean by that is that she was able to answer all of my "dumb" questions on using the chart, and was able to demystify not only its usage, but more broadly, conducting teaching in a free operant manner rather than one bound by sets of 10 trials.

So if this is something you're interested in learning more about, reply to this message with whatever questions pop into your head!

All the best,

Matt
