I would want the IEP to have SMART (specific, measurable, actionable, reasonable, and time-bound) goals around outputs. I'd want a chart that has column headings like these listing out the final results you can expect:

1. Output (action focused on output, like level proficiency achieved, not input activities, like textbook provided)
2. Measurement metric to assess performance
3. Staff responsible
4. Minimum acceptable target
5. Goal target
6. Date completed

Without a responsibility matrix and clear output goals, I'm afraid the plan is worthless.


What is to give light must endure burning.
