Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
Behavior Analysis is the science that studies human behavior by measuring it and examining its connection to environmental events. When behavior analysis is applied to teaching, instructors take continuous, objective data on the skills that students are learning, to assess the effectiveness of the teaching procedures. In addition, teaching methodologies are taken from peer-reviewed research.
