This session will introduce and explore the continuum of student participation throughout the Individualized Education Program (IEP) process. We will highlight the importance of integrating student voice into each key component of educational benefit: assessment, present levels, measurable goals, and supports and services. Join us to discover how to make the IEP process more inclusive and empowering for students, fostering a collaborative environment where every student’s voice is heard and valued.
Administrators often provide feedback to assessment team members on their reports, whether or not it's part of the formal evaluation process. What should you look for when reading these reports, and how do you provide constructive feedback when they don't meet district standards? In this workshop, participants will review the legal requirements outlined in IDEA and the CA Education Code regarding report requirements. More importantly, you will learn how to determine if a report is “good” and how to increase your confidence in providing effective feedback. By the end of this workshop, you will be better equipped to evaluate assessment reports and provide valuable feedback to enhance their quality.
