ASSESSMENT TASK 2: ROLE PLAY

Task summary:

There are two parts to this task:

Part A: You are to respond to a critical incident involving a behavioural issue of a person with a disability.

Part B: You are required to answer a set of questions about effective response strategies.

Part A: Role play

What do I need in order to complete Part A of this assessment?

Role play participant to play the role of the client [your assessor will play this role]. Online students are to discuss in an online class.

Access to a computer and the Internet.

Simulated props and resources—headphones, toys, mittens to simulate padded gloves.

Access to the YouTube video (link provided below).

When do I do Part A?

You will do this task in the classroom.

Fill in the due date as advised by your assessor:

What do I need to do if I get something wrong?

If your assessor identifies that you have not properly demonstrated the required skills/knowledge, they will give you some feedback and you will need to do the role play again.

Instructions:

The purpose of this task is for your assessor to observe how well you can respond to a critical incident involving adverse behaviour in a simulated environment, using appropriate support strategies and communication.

First you will need to watch the YouTube video titled Autism, Self-Injurious Behavioral Interventions.

You can find this video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXbe2VHa37w.

The video shows the self-injurious behaviour of James, who has severe autism and epilepsy. James is seen repeatedly hitting his head in a violent manner with both hands.

After you have watched the video, you will need to participate in a role play with your assessor playing the role of James. James has just been disturbed by a car going past and squealing its brakes.

You will be required to do the following during the role play:

Use appropriate interventions and positive behavioral support strategies.

Use a person-centred approach.

Address safety requirements and procedures.

Use effective communication strategies to meet James’s needs.

James’s behavioural management plan states the following:

James is often startled by loud noises, which cause a buzzing in his head.

He becomes self-injurious, hitting himself around the head involuntarily. He may also experience a seizure.

James only ever hits himself—never anyone or anything else.

James responds to wearing headphones to reduce noise stimulus. These should be put on as soon as possible during an incident.

James may wear padded mitts to prevent injury.

James will respond to calm, repetitive instructions.

Holding James’s hands in his lap reduces the risk of injury and can be calming. James does not find this restrictive.

James reacts badly to sudden loud noises, shouting, complicated instructions, laughing or panic by anyone near him.

James behaviour can be diverted by drawing his attention to objects he enjoys—for example, watching the ceiling fan, his pet dog, his toys and other family members.

Your assessor will be looking to see that you:

Identify the triggers that cause James’s adverse behaviour.

Respond to James in an appropriate manner, correctly carrying out behavioural strategies in response to his behaviour.

For example, remaining calm, being consistent, showing empathy, following the details in his behavioural management plan, etc.

Consider and acknowledge James’s needs, strengths, capabilities and his preferences.

For example, acknowledge attempts made by James to control his behaviour; his likes and dislikes; keeping instructions simple; need for particular intervention strategies, etc.

Make sure James’s environment is safe.

For example, by protecting James’s head and hands; by keeping your own self safe; reducing possibility of his triggers occurring again, etc.

Acknowledge James’s emotional state.

For example, by demonstrating empathy, acknowledging his distress, acknowledging him as he calms down, etc.

Part B: Written questions

What do I need in order to complete Part B of this assessment?

Written questions.

When do I do Part B?

Fill in the due date as advised by your assessor:

What do I need to do if I get something wrong?

If your assessor identifies that your answers are not correct or not detailed enough, they will give you some feedback and ask you to answer the question again.

Instructions:

Your assessor will ask you the following questions about the role play you completed in Part A.

You will answer these questions:

Question 1. Identify the triggers that cause James’s negative behaviour.

Question 2. How will you respond to James in a supportive manner using behavioural strategies?

Question 3. What are James’s needs, strengths, capabilities & preferences?

Question 4. How do we make sure James’s environment is safe?

Question 5. How do we acknowledge James’s emotional state?
