SUMMARY:Writing Meaningful & Compliant IEPs
DESCRIPTION:The IEP process and product can be both educationally useful and legally compliant. Join the AIU TaC for a complete a comprehensive workshop series that is designed to build the internal capacity of special educators when writing compliant and meaningful IEPs. Participants will learn how to better engage in authentic assessment and data-driven decision-making to develop meaningful IEPs that also meet the compliant requirements from PDE and the Bureau of Special Education. Importantly\, the participant will strengthen his or her ability and skill set to write comprehensive\, legally defensible IEPs. \nAs a part of this workshop\, participants will engage in enhancing an IEP for a student on their current caseload. Participants will need the following: \n\nA computer\nA current IEP for a student whose annual meeting date will occur within the next three months\nA printed copy AND electronic version of the selected student’s current current IEP document (MSWord or Google Doc)\n\nWe will not be working on your district’s IEP paperwork platform\n\n\nAn Evaluation Report and/or Re-evaluation Report for the selected student\nPrinted copies and/or ensure digital access to the selected student’s assessment data (PSSA\, Keystones\, PASA)\nEnsure access to district utilized assessment platforms (IXL\, STAR\, TeachTown\, EdInsight) and the selected student’s data\n\n  \nPlease note this workshop includes exercises in writing more meaningful and compliance IEPs. Edits made to an IEP during this workshop are for learning and practice purposes only. \n  \nThe IEP is a legally binding document that is developmental collaboratively with all members of the IEP team. Any revisions must be made through an IEP meeting.

SUMMARY:Peer-Mediated Interventions
DESCRIPTION:Implementing behavior supports for students requires matching interventions to the function of a student’s behavior. In many cases\, students are motivated by connection to their peers more than connection to adults. Join us for a session that focuses on how peers can be involved in interventions that lead to positive behavioral outcomes. This session is perfect for those who have behavior interventions at the tier 2 and 3 level in place but want to consider adding a peer component to those interventions.
