What is it called when a learner completes a task independently, without assistance?

The term used to describe a learner completing a task independently, without assistance, is referred to as "No Cue." When a task is performed without prompts or any form of assistance, it indicates that the individual has attained the necessary skills to execute the task autonomously. This level of independence is crucial as it demonstrates mastery over the task, indicating that the learner can apply what they have learned in an appropriate context without needing support or guidance.

In contrast, the other options refer to different concepts in teaching and learning contexts. For example, "Natural Environment Teaching" involves teaching individuals in their natural environments rather than in a more structured or clinical setting, promoting learning that is relevant to their daily lives. "Maintenance" refers to the retention of skills or behaviors over time after they have been learned, while "Model Prompt" indicates providing an example or demonstration of the desired behavior or skill, which is an assistance strategy rather than a measure of independence.
