Practitioner Data Set

Nine measurement tools that each end in a number you can put in a file. All included in Full Access.

The plan fidelity read-out: three observations at 100, 86 and 57 percent as written, a chart naming the step most often not run as written, and a note that fidelity is 43 points below the best observation — Three observations in, it names the one step that is decaying rather than telling you the plan is at 57 percent.

The progress decision aid: twelve data points charted, with a read-out saying the last third averages 57.5 against 27.5 for the first third, and that the range of 20 to 65 makes the trend worth less than it looks — It describes what the numbers are doing and names your four options. It does not choose.

The nine tools

Fidelity & Implementation Set. Plan fidelity by observation and by implementer, IOA, and a decay check
Probe & Maintenance Set. Unprompted probe data, and a schedule that says which mastered skills are due today
Task Analysis Builder. Steps scored independent or with help, with the link to teach next named
Family-Facing Plan Summary. Type the plan once, and a check on every word a caregiver will not understand
Data Sheet Builder. Twenty measurement methods, your own columns, the definition printed on the sheet
Program Barriers Screener. Sixteen items across four areas, with the whole profile shown
Program Progress Decision Aid. What the data are doing, the four options, and a record of what you decided
Session & Setting Scan. Eighteen items on the space the program actually runs in
Goal Priority & Social Validity Sorter. Goals compared two at a time with the family, ranked and dated

All nine are included in Full Access, and they open as separate tools in your library rather than as one locked file.

They run in an order

Scan the room, decide what is worth teaching, break it into steps, build the sheet, probe before you teach, check the plan is being run as written, and only then ask whether the data are flat. A tenth item comes with the set, a roadmap guide inside the app that walks that order and says what each tool is for.

Most stalled programs are explained by two of these. The environment did not support the plan, or the plan was not being run. Those are the first two tools in the order for that reason.

Every one of them ends in a result

Not a worksheet you filled in. A percentage, a profile across four areas, a dated ranking with a name on it, or a decision with the reason recorded next to it. Six weeks later that record is the difference between a defensible program and a memory.

In the app each of these is a live tool rather than a blank printable. Each one prints from whatever you have put into it, which is the part a static PDF cannot do.

Every tool keeps the judgement with you. None of them recommends a procedure for an identified client.
