Abstract
Video prompting involves preparing a video record of a modelled exemplar of each step of a task analysis and permitting a trainee to view the exemplar each time they fail correctly to perform a step. Prompting videos were prepared for tasks of videorecorder and personal computer use and used to teach the operation of the videorecorder to two trainees and personal computer operation to another two trainees who were moderately intellectually handicapped adolescents. All were successfully trained using video prompting, and training transfered to another teacher, another setting, and, with additional training, to another version of the videorecorder and the personal computer.
