Measuring Progress on IEPs: A Comparison of Graphing Approaches.

Marston, Douglas

Exceptional Children, v55 n1 p38-44 Sep 1988

For 83 low-achieving elementary students, predictions of future performance were computed on the basis of reading and written expression data and were subsequently compared to actual data. Analyses indicated that predictions were more accurate when the data had been graphed on equal interval graphs rather than semilogarithmic charts. (Author/JDD)
