Key Assessment
this will require relearning procedures (current teachers) and for some learners this will be all
new information (new hires).
Instructional Goals
Introduction
The learners for this online environment will be comprised of sixty-five special education
teachers and seven speech-language pathologists. Data regarding this group of learners was
derived from a subject matter expert. Of these seventy-two professionals, 93% are females, 7%
are minorities. Additionally, 78% have previous experience in the current county.
Entry Characteristics
Prior Experience
78% of the learners have prior experience in John Doe County Schools with the reevaluation/redetermination process. While this learning environment will be teaching a new
process, some of the tasks will be the same or similar. Therefore, the majority of learners have
experience gathering many pieces of the needed data in order for the team to make an eligibility
decision. Similarly, although there will be some changes in the order of reevaluation/redetermination meetings, the majority of the learners have prior experience running
special education meetings for this county. Additionally, John Doe County Schools uses an
electronic special education management system called SEMS. This program will continue to be
used in the new process and the fact that the majority of learners have experience with this
program will be helpful in this learning environment.
Potential Misconceptions
The following potential misconceptions regarding the new process for the reevaluation/redetermination process are possible:
Learners may feel the new process will entail more work.
Learners may be concerned that an eligibility determination is being made outside of the
committee meeting.
Learners may have the misconception that a childs eligibility cannot be redetermined
more than one time.
Learners may have the misconception that rating scales are a requirement for a
redetermination.
County Schools. I began by using index cards to write down the steps of this procedure. Using
the index cards allowed rearranging and adding steps with ease. After completing the index
cards, I created a task analysis outline in a word document. The outline was reviewed
thoroughly to ensure all needed steps were included. This task analysis outline is included
below.
Task Analysis Outline
A. Identify upcoming cases that require a redetermination/re-evaluation conference
1. Review case log that includes all students special education eligibility dates
2. Create a list of all students whose 2-year anniversary of special education date will
fall within the school year
3. Also include on list students whose 2-year anniversary of eligibility date falls within
the first month of the following school year (these will need to be completed during
the current school year).
B. Prepare for a redetermination/re-evaluation meeting (using new process)
1. 6 weeks prior to 2-year eligibility date, schedule a Redetermination/Re-evaluation
conference for close to the 2-year date
a. Send home:
i. Meeting notice

The world-view sequence teaches tasks, concepts, or procedures in the chronological order they
would be encountered. Since this project aims to teach learners to use the new special education
process for redetermination/re-evaluation conferences, it was determined that tasks should be
taught in chronological sequence.
Lesson 1: Determining students on your caseload with 2-year eligibility anniversary dates
Objective 1: Given access to SEMS (special education digital document management system),
learners will be able to generate 2-year eligibility anniversary dates.
Objective 1A: To log-in to SEMS
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video demonstrating logging in to the SEMS system
(Cooper, Tindall-Ford, Chandler, & Sweller, 2001).
Generative Strategy: Learners will rehearse this skill by logging into their own SEMS account
five times (Saville, 2011).
Objective 1B: To create caseload list with eligibility dates
Initial Presentation: Students will view a Prezi presentation paired with audio with steps to create
a caseload list. The presentation will show an example of a caseload list.
Generative Strategy: Students will rehearse this task by locating the eligibility dates for five
students in SEMS (Saville, 2011).
Objective 1C: To determine 2-year eligibility anniversary dates that fall within current
school year and first month of the following school year.
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video that states the rule for determining 2-year
anniversary (rule: add 2 years to eligibility date and list students whose date falls within current
school year or first month of the following school year). Video will also show 3 worked
examples of determining 2-year date (Morrison, Ross, Kalman, & Kemp, 2013).
Generative Strategy: Learners will determine 2-year eligibility anniversary for 5 students.
Learners will submit via uploaded video or scan in a word document.
This lesson incorporates Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principle of multiple means of
representation due to content being presented to learners through video, audio, and visual means.
Learners will be able to stop and start the video and audio as needed. Additionally, learners will
be able to express their learning through multiple means with a choice of creating a video or
word document.
Lesson 2: Preparing for Upcoming Redeterminations/Re-evaluation meetings
Objective 2: After learning new process for redetermination/re-evaluation meetings, learners will
identify how to prepare for upcoming redetermination/re-evaluation meetings.
Objective 2A: Recall the first step in process is to obtain parental consent
Objective 2B: Identify data needed for redetermination/re-evaluation meetings
Objective 2C: identify when to meet with school psychologist
Initial Presentation: Learners will read Special Education Handbook section on
Redetermination/Re-evaluation meetings (will be linked and also have text-to-talk available).
Learners will then view a video explaining the process in more detail that shows examples of the
data to be collected.
Generative Strategy: Provide learners with this mnemonic to practice: Can (consent) Dogs (data
collection) Sit (school psychologist) (Rummel, Levin, & Woodward, 2003)?
UDL principles used in lesson 2 include the use of multiple means of representation (print, audio,
video) that can be replayed as needed.
Lesson 3: Choosing the Correct Paperwork
Objective 3: After learning new redetermination/re-evaluation process, learners will be able to
identify paperwork needed to be completed.
Objective 3A: Identify paperwork needed if students eligibility is being redetermined.
Objective 3B: Identify paperwork needed if student will be re-evaluated to determine
eligibility.
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video demonstrating how to locate needed paperwork
in SEMS.
Generative Strategy: Learners will create a video or write a word document explaining the
needed paperwork for a redetermination and for a re-evaluation (Menke, Pressley, Wood,
Woloshyn, Martin, & King (1992).
In lesson 3, learners will have information presented in multiple ways (video with audio) that can
be replayed if needed. Learners will also employ the UDL multiple means of action and
expression principle with a choice of creating a video or word document.
Lesson 4: Tying it all together: Meetings
Objective 4: Learners will understand new agenda for meetings that include a redetermination/reevaluation process.
Objective 4A: Demonstrate new agenda for a redetermination/re-evaluation conference
that is a stand-alone meeting.
Objective 4B: Demonstrate new agenda for a redetermination/re-evaluation conference is
part of an Individual Education Plan annual review.
Initial Presentation: Learners will read the Special Education Handbook section on meeting
agendas (will be linked with text-to-talk available) and then watch a video with 2 mock meetings
(one with redetermination/re-evaluation conference as stand-alone meeting and one with
redetermination/re-evaluation conference as part of IEP meeting).
Generative Strategy: Learners will create PowerPoint, Prezi presentation, or video demonstrating
2 meeting agendas (Jonassen, 1988).
Lesson 4 will employ the UDL principles of multiple means of representation (print, audio,
video) and multiple means of expression (choice of PowerPoint, Prezi, or video).
