My IEP: A Student-Directed Individualized Education Program Model
Exceptionality, v25 n4 p235-252 2017
Students with disabilities need to be more involved in planning and presenting individualized education program (IEP) meetings, and teachers need an effective, efficient curriculum to teach students how. "My IEP" curriculum uses folding graphic organizers to teach students to self-direct IEP meetings, targeting self-advocacy and self-determination to combat student apathy toward and passive participation in IEPs. Students who received "My IEP" (n = 25) spoke on average for 36.78% of IEP meeting time, while comparison group students (n = 14) spoke on average 2.15%. "My IEP" students recalled significantly more IEP knowledge and had shorter meetings. School faculty and staff were significantly more satisfied with "My IEP" meetings.
