This strategy, also called Curriculum Based Measures (CBM), can be used with all students, but is especially useful for students with learning disabilities because it shows concrete evidence of a student's growth. Specific transition needs (as listed in the ESTR-J or TPI) that may be addressed by using this curriculum By using progress monitoring, transition needs such as development. Teachers and students are able to explicitly see growth displayed on a chart. It would be motivating as a student to see how you are progressing and push me to strive to continue that growth, Any Evidence Based Practices on this curriculum that shows that it works for individuals with disabilities? ‘The data from the OSEP website is backed by evidence from a study that tested students in grades 6-12 on reading, spelling, and mathematics. Experimental research that documents how teachers can use progress monitoring to enhance student progress is available in the form of Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM). There are more than 200 empirical studies published in peer-review journals that provide evidence of CBM’s reliability and validity for assessing the development of competence in reading, spelling, and mathematics. In addition, these studies document CBM’s capacity to help teachers improve student outcomes at the elementary grades.
