pK-12 MIG Team Assembling Scenario -2
Description: At a Title 1 middle school, several special education teachers are struggling to implement the individual education plan (IEP) process with fidelity. The IEP process is complicated, and each school/district implements it differently. Each teacher has a different understanding of special education law and responsibilities, how the process works, and what events trigger others in the process and on the system. The general education teachers are not trained at all on this process. Still, they must submit progress monitoring documents and statements to the special education teacher for the IEP process at specific times during the year for all of the special education students.
Central challenge: The special education teachers and the general education teachers need to be able to work effectively with a system that some teachers were never trained on. IEP-Trained teachers need to be able to effectively share their expertise so all teachers can meet the needs of students with IEPs during day-to-day school activities.
Context: Elementary school with students with and without IEPs.
Learners: Special education teachers/General education teachers with special education students/Administrators
