SPD 300 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?
SPD 300 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.
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.
