Abstract
This article describes the use of self-monitoring procedures to increase the number of daily homework assignments completed by eight students with learning disabilities. Students ranged in age from 13 to 16 years and attended Grades 7 through 10. The experimental procedure involved the use of a sheet listing all daily assignments given by regular classroom teachers. A multiple-baseline design across subjects demonstrated a clear relationship between the introduction of self-monitoring of assignments and an increase in assignments completed. Goal setting and self-graphing of data appeared to increase this effect.
