Topic 3 DQ 1
When conflicts relating to special education services lead to due process hearings or go to court, teachers may be asked to submit data regarding the student involved. What types of data should you, as the teacher, be collecting continuously on all students? What are some ways to organize that data so that it can quickly be submitted when requested?
Topic 3 DQ 2
Consider the following scenario:
Francisco is a fifth grade student who meets the eligibility requirements for emotional behavioral disorder. While his testing indicates no cognitive deficiencies, he consistently performs in the average to below average range in most subjects. He has current IEP goals to work on requesting assistance, anger and stress management, and completing requested tasks.
In the past two weeks, Francisco has had five referrals for behaviors such as yelling at the teacher, tossing paper and books on the floor, refusing to comply with requested tasks, and pushing another student while on the way to the office.
The IEP team has been working with Francisco on his goals and an FBA has already been completed. The function of the behavior has been determined as task avoidance. His work has already been reduced and modified to make sure it is at the correct level of difficulty and prompts and frequent breaks have been offered.
Positive behavior supports have also been put in place to help Francisco in meeting his goals (i.e., cue card to remind him of his options when he is frustrated, praise reinforcement, and earned breaks to work or play on the computer before returning to work when a task is finished).
Despite the interventions, the team feels Francisco’s disruptive behavior is escalating. On two recent occasions, the class had to be moved away from him because of his outbursts when he refused to go to the office.  Â
What additional steps might the team take to assist Francisco? How should they determine whether a different placement is needed? How might FAPE and LRE affect this decision-making? Rationalize your choices.
