<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Intended Audience: Open</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">"For many academic skills, accurate performance is not enough. To be most useful in a wide variety of situations, these skills must be fluent. Fluency is the combination of accuracy, speed,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">and ease of performance. In this session, participants will learn strategies and tactics to promote fluency of key skills taught in Direct Instruction programs. The session will (a) explore the importance of fluency, (b) teach the use of the Standard Celeration Chart for monitoring fluency, (c) identify skills for which fluency is important, and (d) recommend specific fluency-building procedures that can be used to supplement Direct Instruction programs."</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Patrick S. Williams, PhD</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">"The dead man test was devised by Ogden Lindsley in 1965 as a rule of thumb for deciding if something is a behavior. The need for such a test stems from the importance of focusing on what an organism actually does when attempting to understand or modify its behavior. My students and I probably remind each other of the dead man test more than any other concept we study. Malott and Suarez (2003, p. 9) characterize the dead man test as follows:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;">If a dead man can do it, it ain't behavior, and if a dead man can't do it, then it is behavior."</span></p>
