This was a well organized lesson on thinking outside the box for goal writing, especially for our high school students who are mod/severe. It would require buy in from the overall IEP team, and confidence and leadership by the SLP, but it is very useful.

The course presented some great new ideas about working with life skills students. The presenter was well organized and gave very practical suggestions for implementing what looks like a more effective, holistic way of developing the functional skills of students in this population.

I am now helping to raise a nonverbal adult with autism that has more independent skills than we once thought. This course helped me identify the skills and task analyze what is necessary to help her become more independent.

It was great to have these two back to back presentations by Jessica Brown. She is a skilled professional who takes an in depth perspective on her topic. Credit to her for diving deep to ensure the best services for her students. It takes a lot of effort to convince all stake holders to work together and to ensure they are doing so. Kudos to you, Jessica. Your hard work is paying off for all of us!

Sorry. This was extremely boring. I didn't feel like there was new content or content that would help me write a better functional goal. I disagreed with a few things presented 1-rubrics 2-keeping the same goal after one year because we have the same student 1-Rubrics are for the providers only-parents never look at them and they are too complicated for stThe point of creating a goal is to try to make progress so if you're not making progress, possibly the goal or supports needs to be changed.

I work with high school students and I have struggled with goal making especially as I advance in my career. I feel like some of my students work on goals that won't be beneficial to them in the real world, and after taking this course, I feel more confident in helping my students succeed! I look forward to trying the checklist-based goals, and possibly trying the rubric-based goals not only on my high school students, but my junior high school students. Overall, this course was very helpful!

Everything the speaker was talking about as far as getting the students prepared for life is so true. We pick goals that will take forever to assist the student in being able to function in life with little support. The transdiciplinary team approach is the best and I like that all team members will address the same goal or goals.
