The Intervention IDEAs brief series describes interventions based on evidence, for practitioners and parents that address the academic, developmental and behavioral domains of infants and...
National Center on Student Progress Monitoring This paper describes curriculum-based measurement in reading and mathematics and provides sample goal statements for each area. In addition, the process by which teachers can examine data and make meaningful decisions about the overall effectiveness of their instruction is described.
This collection of research articles and briefs contains valuable information on intensive interventions from a variety of sources.
This webpage contains guidance for the instruction of students who are culturally or linguistically diverse and for making valid decisions for determining special education eligibility in the following areas: Tier 1 Core Instruction, Tiers 2 and 3 Interventions, and Culturally Responsive Assessments and Interpretation.
Webinar detailing the statute that requires States to annually collect and examine data to determine whether significant disproportionality based on race or ethnicity is occurring in the State and LEAs of the State with respect to: identification of children as children with disabilities, including identification as children with particular impairments, placement of children in particular educational settings, and incidence, duration, and type of disciplinary actions, including suspensions and expulsions.
Replacing a virtual conference, there will be three symposia held, each with three components. The first component will be pre-work materials posted online by OSEP prior to the event. The second component is a two-hour event that will be a combination of live and pre-taped presentations.
Listen as a panel of experts from CIPP provide an overview of the evaluation literature for technical assistance (TA) including concrete examples of how to measure the fidelity of a TA project.
During the webinar, CIPP staff will present the new tool, Demonstrating Evidence across the Project Cycle, which discusses the different types of evidence that can be used throughout the project cycle to monitor progress and fidelity in implementation and to demonstrate results. Participants will learn about the tool and how OSEP grantees can use it during initial project planning, implementation, and evaluation.
This interactive tool discusses the different types of evidence that can be used throughout the project cycle to, for example, support theories of action, choice of interventions, and provide formative feedback on how project activities are progressing. It also discusses how to use the evidence collected to monitor progress and fidelity in implementation with the goal of demonstrating ultimate
OSEP’s third symposium in the 2017 Symposia Series, “Conveying Our Stories--Displaying Our Data,” focused on how States, districts, and Part D-funded investments can develop engaging stories and effectively use data to improve communication strategies used with stakeholders, leadership, and decision makers. The symposium explored best practices and tips for more impactful and effective communication efforts. Examples included: Information on building an effective dissemination plan and Using infographics and data visualization practices to communicate the meaning of data in a way that is accessible, accurate, and actionable for a variety of stakeholders. Tips covered: Using social media to improve outreach and Measuring success using analytic tools.
During this presentation experts, including current OSEP grantees, discussed what we know about: determining the factors that drive high expectations, such as child, family and other stakeholder engagement, how to support each child and family in establishing and meeting those expectations, working towards each child having access to an education that meets her or his unique and individual needs, how high expectations relate to State academic content standards, and incorporating evidence-based practices in the IEP. All of this will be presented in light of how these practices and principles relate to the United States Supreme Court in Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District RE-1, commonly referred to as “Endrew F.”
The topic of this symposium was supporting high-quality special education services to children with disabilities by addressing the capacity needs of educators, IEP (individualized education program) teams, and administrators to develop and implement quality IEPs.
This PDF contains data on suspension and expulsions and the use of seclusion and restraint across the nation and state-by-state. Data include information on preschools, and are disaggregated by race/ethnicity and disability status.This PDF contains data on suspension and expulsions and the use of seclusion and restraint across the nation and state-by-state.
List of technical assistance produces for teaching and assessing students with disabilities.
These webinars discuss the ins and outs of how to plan and conduct high-quality customer interviews as part of a rigorous evaluation. The first webinar discusses the benefits and limitations of using qualitative interviews in an evaluation and walks participants through the “who, what, when, where, and how” of integrating interviews into an evaluation.
The Center for Parent Information and Resources serves as a central resource of information and products to the community of Parent Training Information (PTI) Centers and the Community Parent Resource Centers (CPRCs), so that they can focus their efforts on serving families of children with disabilities.
This page contains information on CEIS and related requirements.
This page lists resources developed by IDC and IDC partners on the topic of disproportionality, including white papers, presentations, rubrics and other tools.
Please note that these timelines are suggestions that will prepare States for full compliance in SY 2018–2019. While States can make annual determinations of significant disproportionality anytime during SY 2018–2019, for purposes of this Model Timeline, we are assuming States make annual determinations between March 2019 and May 2019. States are not required to follow these timelines.
The purpose of this brief is to share findings from follow-up studies of OSEP-funded model demonstration projects that were conducted, in part, to examine model sustainment.
The primary purpose for this link is to share an IES repository of resources related to designing studies, implementing programs, and analyzing data.
