Discrete trial training (DTT) is a method of teaching typically used in a 1:1 special education setting. The discrete trial method has three distinct parts: (1) the trainer’s presentation (“point to the red block”), (2) the child’s response (the child points), and (3) the consequence (correction or reinforcement). Pausing between trials can provide an opportunity for data collection.
