This is an interesting passage.  How is the disclosure of disabilities and
medical conditions sent electronically being handled?  I would assume with
the new HIPAA there will need to be a whole new set of signatures
acknowledging the privacy of information and the electronic process.  Nancie

Subject: [LearningDisabilities 747] Universal Electronic IEP

 

Hello all,

 

Here is an interesting tidbit from the TRN Disability News, an electronic
publication.

 

 Florida Passes a Universal Electronic IEP Form 

Legislation creating a universal IEP form has been passed by the Florida
legislature. A universal electronic IEP form will mean that a student moves
through the school system using the same form with the same questions. This
new form enables comparison of one school to another, one year to another,
one district to another and helps facilitate the management of the
expectations of parents and teachers. 

 

Do any of you know of other states that already have Universal Electronic
IEP Forms?   and if so.... How well have they been received by educators,
parents and students?

 

Have Universal Electronic IEPs followed students into adult education
programs?

 

If you have experience in this area, please share with us.

 

Thanks,

 

Rochelle
