Video modeling (VM) has demonstrated efficacy in teaching a variety of skills (e.g., social skills, communication, vocational tasks) to learners with autism spectrum disorder. Previous research indicates teachers and learners have supported the use of VM. However, the majority of studies have focused on elementary-school students; less research has explored the use of VM in secondary education settings. To extend the literature, this article describes the use of VM with three high school student-teacher dyads. Each teacher adapted the VM intervention to meet the needs of their student as well as to fit with the current technology available and utilized in their classrooms. All of the three students learned a different target skill with VM and achieved mastery criteria. Results for the three student skills, as well as implementation guidelines and future directions, are discussed.
