A high rate of instructional engagement is important to maximize progress in
early intensive behavioral interventions (EIBI). Teachers responsible for eliciting
instructional engagement may need additional support to maintain high rates of
engagement. Literature suggests that goal setting and feedback is effective in increasing
performance. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether goal setting and group
feedback would increase engagement in instructional activities related to the children's
goals. Results indicate that goal setting and group feedback was successful in increasing
engagement in instructional activities. The results are discussed in the context of
engagement, staff performance, group contingencies and performance feedback.
