The Verda creates many reports based on the data taken by staff throughout the school day. The Goal Summary is a monthly overview on the progress of goals for easy review. When a student is meeting their goal by 80%, the goal will highlight to yellow.
This is a great tool for educators to see the student progress and the effectiveness of interventions.
Collecting data for students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it ensures that educational interventions and accommodations are tailored to the unique needs of each student, providing a clear and objective basis for tracking progress and making informed decisions about instructional strategies. Regular data collection allows educators to monitor the effectiveness of the IEP goals and objectives, making it possible to adjust strategies promptly if a student is not meeting their targets. Additionally, data provides essential evidence for evaluating the impact of special education services and supports, ensuring that they are effective and aligned with the student's evolving needs. This ongoing assessment helps in identifying areas where additional support may be required, ultimately fostering a more responsive and personalized learning environment. Furthermore, comprehensive data collection supports transparent communication with parents and guardians, offering concrete evidence of progress and areas for improvement, which is vital for collaborative decision-making in the student’s education.
