Request CART captioning for a class or meeting
When to use this goal
For high school students preparing for college and work, where they must request real-time captioning (CART) or other access themselves. Present levels in self-advocacy and in knowing their accommodations decide fit.
- Baseline
- List upcoming events that need access and record who requested it. Use mock requests if real ones are few.
- Tips
- Teach lead times: captioners book weeks ahead. Signing students may request interpreters the same way (see visual communication goals).
- Limits
- The school stays responsible for access in high school. Hearing technology is one access route the family and student chose; it does not replace sign language, captions, or other visual access where the student uses them.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, when planning for a meeting, a dual-enrollment class, a college visit, or a job training with spoken content, the student will contact the right office, request CART or other captioning by the deadline, and confirm the arrangement independently in at least 3 of 4 opportunities, across 2 consecutive semesters, as measured by frequency recording collected monthly.
Baseline: 0 of 4 opportunities.

- Record up to 4 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
