Guided practice for writing clear, objective and measurable IEP goals

Writing clear, objective and measurable IEP goals takes practice. All too often IEP goals are vague, imprecise and difficult to measure. Special educator and legal expert Dr. Bateman shows educators how to quickly and accurately write measurable IEP goals in compliance legal mandates. Using examples from real-life “Gobbledygook’ (inaccurate IEP goals and objectives), Dr. Bateman shows common errors and then offers a simple step-by-step process for improvement.

Common problems in Gobbledygook include: word jargon, inadequate or absent performance criterion, misalignment with child’s ability, misuses of percentage and writing standards based IEP goals rather than individualized based IEP goals.

Improve your IEP writing skills using Dr. Bateman’s simple straight-forward approach.
