A newly revised and enhanced edition of the ultimate guide to understanding IEPs from a legal standpoint, complete with IDEA 2004 updates. A classic in its field, Better IEPs presents a focused, three-step process that zooms in on the individual student and dismisses out of hand the one-size-fits-all approach that is too often mistaken for proper procedure in today's schools. Gives all educators confidence and know-how to develop competent IEPs. Written by Dr. Barbara Bateman, an attorney and professor emeritus and the number one expert on IEP law in the nation, and coauthored by Mary Anne Linden.

Writing clear, measurable annual IEP goals is a difficult skill to master. The good news is that goal writing is easy once the steps are revealed. In her latest book, Dr. Barbara Bateman takes poorly written goals and rewrites them into clear, concise goals. You learn to simplify the process by focusing on four ideas: observable behavior, measurable criteria, a given or condition for success, and a final test

Writing Measurable Functional and Transition IEP Goals is a new book by the leading IEP author team! Students with severe and multiple disabilities typically do not get sufficient, direct, individual instruction in functional and transition skills areas. These include social skills, communication, transportation training, leisure-recreation, self-care, housekeeping, and many others. This lack of functional skill training can also be a problem for those with moderate or mild disabilities. This book addresses all these groups with its focus squarely on two instructional steps: writing measurable goals (target behaviors,) and identifying steps on the way to those goals (task analysis). It is patterned after the coauthors' highly successful and definitive book, Writing Measurable IEP Goals and Objectives, but emphasizes functional goals for transition students.
