In order to ensure increased achievement and access to the general curriculum for students with disabilities, an individualized education program (IEP) process called "Standards-Based IEP" has been recommended as a best practice for achieving academic goals. The focus of this session is to learn more about the standards-based IEP process from the perspective of the school-based speech-language pathologist (SLP).
As a result of this presentation, the participant will be able to
1. Develop present levels of academic achievement and functional performance (PLAAFP) that connect to the full and individual evaluation (FIE).
2. Draft measurable annual academic goals and short-term objectives/benchmarks that are aligned to state academic grade-level content standards.
3. Draft measurable functional goals and short-term objectives/benchmarks that support access to the general education curriculum.
4. Identify methods to measure and report student progress on goals and short-term objectives/benchmarks.
The course titled "Standards-Based Individualized Education Program (IEP) Process: Supplemental Training for Evaluation Personnel" is recommended as a prerequisite to this course, but is not a requirement for enrollment.
