We met to discuss next steps around SLD criteria in SIMS. We have a number of ideas and we are wondering which of them might be easy to do and which will be more difficult. I will try to list some of the ideas and then Sara and Vaunce can weigh in with details.

First, we would like definitions in help pop-up boxes for the two terms listed in the e-mail below. “Adequate Fidelity” definition next to the 80% fidelity question in end intervention. And “Intensive Intervention” next to intervention selection box – correct ladies?

Second, in the box that lists the SLD categories we would like the title to read: “Areas of potential specific learning disability”.

Third, in the progress monitoring section, if an SLD related intervention is selected, teachers will need to enter 3 initial probe data sets. That means that in one day they will need to gather 3 numbers using a consistent assessment tool. They will need an initial probe date and 3 initial probe score boxes in order to set up the intervention for a student.

Also, we need to add a planned number of minutes for each intervention connected to the SLD categories. We are unsure of the least intrusive strategy for this. Sara was concerned by the intensity of effort this might take if we chose to do it for all interventions versus SLD only.

Finally, we are wondering if when a student is assigned an SLD intervention, could that intervention show up in Blue on the student report so that when it is printed or viewed at consultation team it is apparent which interventions meet the SLD criteria and which don’t.

    “Intensive interventions” means interventions used with individual or small groups of pupils, focusing on single or small numbers of discrete skills, with substantial numbers of instructional minutes in addition to those provided to all pupils.

    “Adequate fidelity” means the intervention has been applied in a manner highly consistent with its design, and was provided to the pupil at least 80 percent of the recommended number of weeks, sessions, and minutes per session.

    I'm adding this one
    6. The interventions menus at the left (pdf's and html) should indicate sld criteria) change the description and color them blue.

    changing the pdf reports will require switching to a new pdf generation tool.

    prawn requires upgrade to ruby 1.8.7

    wicked_pdf is another option, but I'm not sure about pagination.....
