Model Me Organization
& Motivation: Executive Functioning
The Model Me Organization & Motivation
video presents skills related to organization and self-motivation.
It features teen-aged children demonstrating how to get organized
and stay motivated. Each scene lasts between 30 seconds and
3 minutes, depending on the chapter. At the end of each chapter
is a storyboard summarizing the rules taught.
The video is hosted by the children in the video, who narrate
each scene.
With narration: In the first half of the video, the visual
is combined with narration and graphics that help explain
the particular rule.
Without narration: In the second half of the video, the same
video is repeated without narration and graphics. This allows
a parent, teacher, or therapist to customize the lesson the
individual child and/or to test what was learned in the first
viewing of the video.
Each skill is demonstrated in more than one situation and
across environments. This is useful to children with Asperger
Syndrome and Autism because it helps with generalization of
the skill taught.
Graphics and music are used to make the video appealing to
children with Asperger's Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder,
and Nonverbal Learning Disorders. A high production value
helps keep the child's interest so that he or she will want
to watch many times.
Run Time: Approx. 63 minutes
