Precision teachers, according to Jack Auman, have an impact on students similar to the Butterfly Effect because of the small changes that can have enormous positive outcomes. In this episode, Jack talks about his journey to Precision Teaching after he met Steve Graf. From scorekeeping at a baseball game together to the adventures that they had together. He goes on to discuss Steve's brilliant ideas and how he used his own programming knowledge to bring them to life.   Join our The ABA and PT Podcast Facebook Group to get access to the following resources: Facebook group link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/397478901376425 Check out the podcast on your favorite platform!

Checking my timeline, here's where we bridge into precision teaching or the standard celebration chart.”

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. 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 watered 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 BACB certifications to North America.   HIGHLIGHTS   04:41 Who were John's early influences that led him to pursue a career in Psychology and Precision Teaching? 13:42 John on his career after graduate school, including his projects with Aubrey Daniels & Associates 23:34 On the benefits of using manual flashcards  26:18 What were some of the applications that John has used SAFMEDS for? 31:18 John describes Steve Graf's dissertation topic on word responses 41:01 On the use of plain English in Precision Teaching 58:06 On the current state of ABA 1:17:07 On the current state and future hope for Precision Teaching 1:29:18 Helpful resources for students pursuing Precision Teaching and charting   RESOURCES   Learn more about the Standard Celeration Society on their Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/celeration.org/   Learn more about the Standard Celeration Society on their website: https://celeration.org/  Check out Carl Binder's The Fluency Channel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/189260084444139/  Visit the Fluency Project's website: https://fluency.org/  Check out Richard McManus' Fluency Factory videos on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/richardinhingham/playlists  Learn more about Steve Graf on this website: https://www.stevegraf.org/  Read the book, Precision Teaching--A Practical Science of Education by Norris G.

I'm always an advocate of 'if somebody knows something, can they test it out?' That way they don't have to waste their time or your time going through a learning program about something they already know." 45:48 John: "Lindsley's whole idea with COLAB was to use as much plain English as possible, presented accelerating consequence. There's nothing technical about that, right? It's presented, it's not taken away. It's accelerated, not decelerated because you have presented decelerating consequence too, as opposed to a punisher." 52:04 John: "Precision Teaching itself, as a term, is a euphemism. Euphemism is a better-sounding word that has less baggage or less controversy." 1:13:58 John: "To the extent that Precision Teaching can maintain some independence, it always was somewhat independent of ABA because they both come from different lineages and they only partially overlap. Precision Teaching is about a lot of positive things. I mean, we're teaching. So we call our client 'learners'." 1:19:09 John: "As long as we respect what the background is of Precision Teaching, what its main purpose was, using the actual chart and not being dogmatic about any of this. Being willing to graph things other ways too— that's the least dogmatic it can be."

Stacy Adimando and Steve Graf are a testament to risking big for love whenever and wherever you find it. She was living in Brooklyn, he in Northern California. But when they met working at a food festival in Portland, Oregon, they both felt something strong enough to give a long-distance relationship a chance. On today's show, we track their story as Stacy crosses the country, they court and wed, and eventually move again, this time to New York together. Their biggest fears throughout the process might surprise you. Have a listen to the third of our Power Couples series, quickly becoming our favorite thing so far about 2017.

In part two of the interview with Steve Graf of Banshee wine, we learn about how Steve got his first customers and how he produces the wine using custom crush facilities. He also talks margins, financing the company, and about the economics of the wine club. 

In this episode, we learn about how Steve Graf helped co-found Banshee Wines. He talks about how he started the company with two friends, and how he thinks about wine both from the production and marketing perspective. Their wines have been ranked among the top 100 by Wine & Spirits magazine.

1080 poison is one of the top 10 deadliest poisons known to man. It kills every air breathing animal and is also a broad-spectrum insecticide. It is used widely by the New Zealand government, purportedly to kill non-native species in New Zealand’s wilderness areas. The poison is manufactured in the US, where only 4 tablespoons are used each year. New … Read more about this episode...
