This study aimed to contribute to the secondary-tier evidence of the three-tier video modeling intervention model (3TVM), using a group-based generic video, and to explore a new form of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) intervention using a Chinese-language interface for teaching children with developmental disabilities. A multiple baseline across participants design was used in this study to assess the success of the intervention among three individuals ages 9-12 with developmental disabilities. The results indicate that the group-based VM intervention using an iPad® successfully increased the participants' ability to communicate during snack time. As the participants' communication improved, anecdotal records showed that their inappropriate behaviors decreased. A discussion of future research is provided.
