Weeks to Close The Gap

Revised 4/11/2014 We have expectations or we know what is typical. We set goals to close the gap. Sometimes we know that we are closing the gap, but how long will it be before the gap is actually closed? This tool was developed to help you to determine how many additional weeks it will take to close the gap. Enter data for the typical or expected scores in the first and last week you plan to test the target student. Enter the number of weeks in one year, then enter the baseline and goal data for the target student. The file will graph the data and provide you with a brief narrative explaining how many additional weeks it will take to close the gap, and how many more weeks it will take than what has been recorded.

Progress Monitor with confidence

Revised 6/09

Now enter the week number instead of the actual date, after all who is counting the number of words gained per day?. This file provides a mechanism for evaluating the status of a series of interventions based on the consistency of the pattern of data around the trend line for a given intervention. It is flexible, in that it allows for as many as 100 interventions to be coded in a single data sheet. Response to Intervention: Tools like this are necessary to provide a scientific defense for special education decision-making in an RTI framework. This is an attempt to overcome the three data point rule, using confidence intervals to determine whether a pattern of performance is sufficient to warrant a decision, or if additional data are required. Confidence intervals around the slope are drawn and the status of the intervention is evaluated with a stoplight. Note. No effort to correct for autocorrelation is made. Note. Reporting Date Error Fixed 4.8.10
