, Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
The present invention relates to a system for creating and administering individual education plans. The present invention more particularly relates to a system for creating individual education plans based upon student profiles and monitoring/assessing the progress and status of the students in the plans.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Public and private elementary, middle and high schools are mandated by their respective state and federal government to offer individualized education plans to meet the needs of students, including gifted and talented students, English as a Second Language students, literacy program students, Title I program students and students with learning disabilities. The individualized plans provide services that are tailored to the specific needs of students. For example, a student may require special attention in areas such as reading, writing, mathematics, speech, social skills, physical skills, emotional development, and/or any other area of special need. Similarly, a student may excel beyond his/her peers in one or more particular area and thus require special attention to provide this student with educational or other challenges thereby allowing this student to fully develop his or her potential to the fullest extent possible. For example, specialized services may be offered in areas including music, art and athletic programs.
Preferably, an individual education plan is designed as a collaborative effort with the input of school administrators, counselors, teachers and of the parents or guardian of the particular student. Typically, in any individual education plan, parental or guardian authorization is required. In addition, there is usually an entry qualification process to determine if a student's particular needs or gifts qualify that student for a particular plan. Qualification criteria are often designated by a state board of education. Periodic evaluations and assessments of a student's skills, needs and progress are also part of an overall individual education plan.
Currently, the entire process of creating and administering an individual education plan is accomplished manually. Essentially, this involves many individuals manually completing a myriad of forms, tracking the student's progress in the plans, and continuously monitoring the needs and skills of the students in the plans. Paper copies of the forms are sent to supervisors for approval once a staffing meeting has taken place. If there is an error, the forms are returned to the school and a new set must be produced. The new paper copy, with a notation as to what changed and why, is forwarded to all appropriate school personnel and to the parents/guardian of the particular student. This process could extend the life cycle of the individual education plan creation by a week. Essentially, as seen by the above example, this endeavor requires significant time and effort on the part of teachers, school administrators and counselors as well as the parents (guardian) of the student. In addition to the demand of time on the individuals involved, the manual control of this process may be prohibitively expensive. Accordingly, there is a need to enhance the efficiency of and reduce the cost of maintaining individual education plans.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION:
An object of the present invention is to provide a system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans based upon student profiles and monitoring/assessing the progress and status of the students in the plans.
Another object of the present invention is to save the costing from the manual procedures and to enhance the efficiency of the system.
Yet another object of the present invention is to reduce the cost of maintaining individual education plans.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:
Accordingly, a system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans is disclosed. A system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans comprising of; Creating student information record and creating individual education plan for students; Assessing student progress in education forms; Scrutinizing the student progress in education forms; Creating all forms for students for utilizing individual plans for the qualified students; and Intimating all the progress of the students to parents through database of the website.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS:
Fig 1 is the system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION WITH RESPECT TO DRAWINGS:
The present invention is a system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans. The system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans based upon student profiles and monitoring/assessing the progress and status of the students in the plans. The present invention helps to save the costing from the manual procedures and to enhance the efficiency of the system. The present invention helps to reduce the cost of maintaining individual education plans.
In one embodiment, a system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans comprising of;
a. Creating student information record and creating individual education plan for students;
b. Assessing student progress in education forms;
c. Scrutinizing the student progress in education forms;
d. Creating all forms for students for utilizing individual plans for the qualified students; and
e. Intimating all the progress of the students to parents through database of the website.
In another embodiment, a system for creating and administering individual education plans and to create individual education plans is disclosed. The individual education program tracking system of the present invention provides a way of creating, administering and maintaining individual education plans. Individual education plans, are plans for fulfilling special needs of individual students. These students, by virtue of a specific talent or gift, or because of a disability, have needs that cannot be fully met by the mainstream educational system. The individual education program tracking system enables school administrators, school counselors, teachers and parents to develop a new or modify an existing student profile, create a new or modify an existing individual plan for the student based upon the profile and track the student's progress in the plan through periodic evaluations and assessments/test.
The individual education program tracking system of the present invention provides a network and means for each school in a school district to track the individual education plans for the students of that school and submit the data to the school district's central office. The system may also be utilized to compile the data from each of the schools in the district. The compiled data may then be utilized for any number of purposes including statistical analysis of the various aspects of the individual education programs.
In another embodiment, the individual education program tracking system of the present invention provides for the standardization of the individual education process at the school, school district and state board of education level. It increases the speed in obtaining and completing the forms necessary to create and administer the plans, and it greatly increases the efficiency of the analysis of the data compiled.
The individual education program tracking system of the present invention provides a user-friendly interface operable on any computing system such as personal computers. The system is highly configurable/reconfigurable to fit the needs of gifted/talented children as well as challenged children. Accordingly, teachers, school administrators and counselors may easily and efficiently create and edit data for student profiles and individual education plans, thereby saving time, effort and money in the creation and administration of individual education plans.
