Project MAP (Model Accounting Plan) is designed to test a demographic system for monitoring the within-school and post-school transitions of special education participants. Implemented at the local level, this system produces data to inform school-level decision-making. In addition, the data that are produced can be aggregated for use at higher administrative levels. This report summarizes the progress made during Year One of the project. Goals of the first year included the following activities: (1) identify successful procedures used to track special education students through the school system; (2) identify successful procedures used to track special education students following graduation from special education; (3) evaluate existing data systems for use in a demographic accounting framework; (4) pilot test follow-up procedures for use with special education graduates; (5) conduct transitional analyses within one local special education jurisdiction. Following a description of the development of the MAP, the derivation of transition probabilities is described in detail, including the effects of age, handicap, sex and ethnicity using observed versus estimated transition probabilities. Following the MAP transition matrix, special education expectancy measures are discussed and presented, including effect of placement on attainment and effect of handicap on attainment. A final section presents an interpretation of the results, research recommendations, and areas of study for Year Two. (KM)
