Which of the following apply to this problem scenario?
  • Inclusion context is not an ideal fit
  • Program supports are needed
  • Adaptations are needed
Identify some solutions that might work for this problem. Be as specific as you like, adapting course solutions so they fit the problem best.

1. Adjust Job Role or Tasks to Align with Interests
Advocate for task rotation so John can spend part of his shift stocking shelves and part greeting customers or bagging groceries (building in social interaction).

Explore job carving, where his role is modified to fit both employer needs and his social preference (e.g., helping customers find items while stocking).

2. Increase Tolerance for Current Role
Use self-monitoring tools to track time on-task vs. distracted behaviors, paired with reinforcement for meeting goals.

Set up clear environmental cues (e.g., a checklist or a visual timer) to help John return to task after brief customer interactions.

Provide in-vivo practice with prompts fading over time to strengthen his ability to manage distractions.
