Crossing the street with 80% accuracy may be measurable...
but it certainly isn't meaningful!
Thank you for putting together this course! It is very much needed and is extremely helpful for me in writing better IEP's. The information and knowledge you share will be so beneficial to my students. I will immediately begin to write the present level following your guidelines and the same with writing "meaningful" goals. I've often felt like I've floundered around writing the present level, not sure if I was hitting the necessary information. Your guidelines change that, thank you." ~ Marna Kumpula, M. Ed.
