When to use this goal

For high school students who know their accommodations but do not notice or report when a class is not providing them. Base the choice on a review of accommodation use across classes. Pairs with se-sa-001 for in-the-moment requests.

Baseline
Compare the student's account of accommodation use with teacher reports for one month. Count instances where a support was not provided and whether the student noticed and reported it. Check whether the student can list their accommodations from memory or needs the card.
Tips
An opportunity is a verified instance of a listed support not being provided. Score correct when the student reports it within one school day (natural events) or at the next check (checklist condition). Planned probes must be low-stakes, brief, and agreed by the team; the goal is noticing, not catching teachers out. Follow up every report so reporting leads to change.
Limits
Verification depends on teacher honesty and records. Over-reporting can occur when the student misunderstands an accommodation; review definitions together. Providing accommodations remains the school's responsibility regardless of the student's reporting.

  • Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.

  • Met: Condition. Stated.

  • Met: Unit fits the behavior. Opportunities fits this behavior.

  • Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.

  • Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.

  • Met: Method produces the metric. Opportunity (trial) recording gives opportunities 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 Self-Advocacy.

  • Met: Level of support. Defined.

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