Evaluating Prompting and Prompt Fading

Understand how supervisors assess prompt selection, fading strategy, and independence building.

Evaluating Prompting and Prompt Fading

Prompting is assessed not by whether assistance is provided, but by how it is reduced.

Prompt fading reflects a supervisee’s ability to balance support with independence.

  • Selection of appropriate prompt levels
  • Sensitivity to learner responding
  • Systematic fading of support
  • Reinforcement of independent responses
  • Avoidance of prompt dependency
