How can software help educators successfully conduct alternate assessments?
ProFile permits teachers to collect samples of student work, audio clips, video clips, and other evidence, and to view these either for an IEP meeting or for the statewide alternate assessment. The software provides an efficient storage and retrieval system for classroom-based evidence of student performance across the school year. Many users find it helpful for IEP teams to review this information as it pertains to progress on goals and objectives. Parents are particularly pleased to see actual demonstrations of their child’s skills through video clips and other direct methods. Educators can organize the evidence of student performance they have collected by entry and content standard, resulting in an effective electronic portfolio that is easily viewed and evaluated.
