U5- Relevant Information: is data that can be applied to solve a problem. This is a particular issue when determining the format and content of an entity's financial statements, since the proper layout and level of detail of information can adjust the opinions of users regarding the future direction of a business of school district (Yarbrough, Shulha, Hopson, & Caruthers, 2011). According to Mereoiu, Abercrombie, Murray (2016) states that Individualized Education Program (IEP) is the roadmap that helps educators and families drive the education of students with disabilities, improve outcomes, and fulfill each child’ potential. Professional norms and experience, the relevant special education literature lacks a systematic case law foundation (Butera & Brenda, 1998). There the contents of Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) become relevant in such cases. There educators must examine IEPs to establish the relationship between misbehavior and disability (Zirkel, 2016).
U6- Meaningful Processes and Products: is when they are perceived to have significance and value for stakeholders and designing activities to assure both accuracy and meaningfulness can help stakeholder to a better understanding the complexity of their program’s (Yarbrough, Shulha, Hopson, & Caruthers, 2011). According to Johns, Crowley and Guetzloe (2007) states that IEPs team determines the individual effectiveness of a level system for a student, the team must determine whether the student is making satisfactory progress through the level system. However, the IEPs meeting that includes the stakeholders and parents determine the outcome of the student’s future (Scott, 2011). It is essential in order to achieve positive outcomes when both professionals or stakeholders and parents find themselves in a context in which collaboration includes decision-making and communication skills in a short period of time.

  1. IEP can be a difficult task to create. How would you recommend accuracy standards that you've listed in evaluating the IEP process?
