The Jawaan Bin Jassim Model Independent School in the Middle East is the first to bring Discrete Trial Training (DT Training or DTT) and applied behavior analysis (ABA) to students with autism. The founder of DT Training, Karl Smith, visited to the school to assist in the program launch. He explained that he created DTT to be used in conjunction with applied behavior analysis (ABA), which may be expensive and time consuming. The DT Training model helps children with autism and other developmental disabilities to work independently on skills they need. The most recent product Smith's company has released is the Activity Trainer, which uses video-modeling for the home and classroom.
