When to use this goal

For students 18 to 21 in a transition program, or seniors preparing for work or college, who need to travel a new route to a job site or a building on a college campus. Present levels in route learning and street skills decide fit.

Baseline
Walk the route with the student, then observe their first try with the specialist following. Mark each step and note the hardest segment.
Tips
Teach the route before the job or term starts if possible. Include a plan for bad weather and for a closed entrance.
Limits
Each new route needs its own instruction. The goal does not replace the O&M specialist's judgment about when the student is ready for a harder route or less supervision.

Goal

By the annual IEP review date, during the transition program, on the route from the program site or bus stop to the student's job site, the student will travel the route using taught landmarks, crossings, and entrances and check in at the destination, performing all 7 steps independently, on 5 consecutive work or campus days, as measured by a task-analysis checklist collected each day the route is traveled during instruction.

Baseline: 2 of 7 steps independently.

Measurability check11 of 11 met
  • Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.

  • Met: Condition. Stated.

  • Met: Unit fits the behavior. Task-analysis steps fits this behavior.

  • Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.

  • Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.

  • Met: Method produces the metric. Task-analysis checklist gives task-analysis steps data.

  • Met: Review timeframe. Stated.

  • Met: Baseline and target compatible. Same unit, change in the right direction.

  • Met: Aligned with area of need. Still about Orientation & Mobility.

  • Met: Level of support. Defined.

  • Met: Blanks filled in. Nothing left to fill in.

Checks structure and wording only. Whether the goal fits the student is the team's call.

Short-term objectives (optional)

When are objectives required?
