A standards-based Individualized Education Program (IEP) is a document that addresses how a student’s disability impacts his or her ability to access the curriculum standards at his or her enrolled grade level. While IEPs for all students with disabilities must be written to address how the student will participate in the general curriculum, educators continue to be challenged by HOW to develop, implement and monitor an IEP that will ensure access to state standards.
This session will address critical information pertaining to the components of a standards-based IEP, the importance of precision in determining students’ level of performance, and steps for writing meaningful and measurable goals and objectives. Participants will receive an overview of the process and some practical tools to aid them in future practice.

The Step-by-Step team training emphasizes the importance of individual student-centered decisions for assigning supports and services. Each participating school will create an action plan and identify criteria for determining successful implementation of effective practices. This action plan addresses six of the critical themes covered in the Step by Step training:
1. Instructional Setting
2. Collaboration
3. Instruction
4. In-Class Support
5. Peer and Family Relationships
6. Effective Use of Personnel
Participating teams will learn:
- A clear definition of inclusive education
- Instructional strategies to meet the needs of diverse learners in the general education classroom
- Three distinct staffing models to assure that students and teachers receive the support they need
- A process for scheduling that makes the best use of resources, and many more practical strategies
- Five strategies to improve the quality and impact of paraeducator services
- An effective peer assistance and peer tutoring program

For this, assessment of learning, particularly the formative assessment helps to a great extent.
Formative assessment that is employed during the teaching of every unit in the subject, aims at improving student learning.

We have prepared this training to ensure that teachers and administrators receive practical, classroom-friendly resources to support their efforts toward quality instruction for all students. These materials should act as a companion to a district’s curriculum framework. Our goal is to provide resources to guide teachers in applying highly-effective, differentiated instructional strategies that extend the opportunities for all students to be successful within the context of the district’s curriculum.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

11. • “Annual goals are statements that describe what a
child with a disability can reasonably be expected
to accomplish within a 12 month period in the
child’s special education program.
• These goals are skills and/or knowledge that will
be mastered, not an activity.
• The goals should focus on enabling students to
demonstrate academic achievement related to
enrolled grade level standards”.

19. DIRECT
• A direct approach to
measuring progress
involves the use of
objective measures
that are observable,
clearly scorable, and
reference the skill
desired (curriculum-
based assessment,
benchmarks, criterion
referenced tests,
Teacher made
checklists).
INDIRECT
• An indirect approach to
measuring progress
involves the use of
measures that support
the objective
measures. (student self
monitoring, rubrics
accuracy rating etc.
AUTHENTIC
• An authentic approach
to progress monitoring
involves the use of
measures that further
support the student’s
progress (anecdotal
records, conferences,
portfolio, videotaping.
