5. Since becoming a competent communicator relies on the support of a responsive social partner, the SCERTS model (Enhancing Communication and Socioemotional Abilities of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder), recognizes all except that:
a. direct instruction focused on the child in socially isolated 'teaching programs' does not necessarily ensure positive social communicative exchanges and development of relationships across a number of different partners.
b. to ensure social success, supports must be fostered across all partners and settings within a child's life, including family members at home, same-aged peers and teachers at school, and those within the larger community.
c. partner objectives are written to address Interpersonal Support modifications (e.g., communicative style adjustments) and Learning Support modifications (e.g., the use of visual modalities and environmental modifications).
d. relationships develop when the toddler with ASD has complete responsibility for change and mutually enjoyable and successful exchanges are achieved with the child and other play partners.
