New! Learn It and Use It: Breaking it Down: Identifying Learning Targets from DRDP Results
Review how to break down goals into proximal learning targets using the authentic assessment information from the DRDP to determine the knowledge and skills to teach in daily activities, routines, and transitions for children with IFSPs and IEPs.
Join the Desired Results Access Project and the Desired Results Training and Technical Assistance Project as they partner to share information specific to the implementation of the DRDP assessment for all children. The webinars highlight the importance of early childhood educators and early childhood special educators/service providers working together to support children's authentic assessment and ways to share children's learning and development with families.
