Part I: Identification of Learning Problem
General Audience
The audience for this online learning module consists of the special education teachers and the
speech-language pathologists within the John Doe County School system. This county currently
employs about sixty-five special education teachers and seven speech-language pathologists. For
the upcoming school year (2014-15), this will be a diverse population in regards to experience in
the schools. While no turnover is expected in regards to the speech-language teachers, John Doe
County Schools will be hiring approximately sixteen new special education teachers. Therefore,
the audience for this learning environment will range from no experience in John Doe County
Schools (and perhaps no teacher experience at all) to those with 25 or more years of experience
in this school district. The education level of learners will be varied also, with some learners
holding a bachelor’s degree, most holding a master’s degree, and a few holding a specialist’s
degree. This district does not have any doctoral level special education or speech-language
pathologists, although this could change depending on the new teachers hired.
Problem Identification
Special education regulations require a student’s eligibility be addressed every three years. A
team, minimally consisting of a parent, special education teacher, general education teacher,
school psychologist, and a representative of the school administration, meets to determine if
there is sufficient information and data to continue the child’s eligibility (redetermination) or
whether additional data needs to collected through an evaluation by the school psychologist to
determine whether the student continues to meet eligibility criteria (re-evaluation). For the 2014-
15 school year, John Doe County Schools will introduce a new procedure for this
redetermination/re-evaluation process. This new procedure will require training to address
differences in teacher and speech-language pathologist preparation for upcoming cases, changes
in paperwork, and changes in the order that meetings should be conducted. For most learners,
this will require relearning procedures (current teachers) and for some learners this will be all
new information (new hires).
Instructional Goals
Learners will be able to correctly identify upcoming cases for redetermination/re-evaluation.
Learners will be able to adequately prepare for an updated redetermination/re-evaluation meeting.
Learners will be able to correctly identify paperwork required for the redetermination/re-evaluation process.
Learners will become familiar with the new agenda for redetermination/re-evaluation meetings.
Part II: Learner Analysis
Introduction
The learners for this online environment will be comprised of sixty-five special education
teachers and seven speech-language pathologists. Data regarding this group of learners was
derived from a subject matter expert. Of these seventy-two professionals, 93% are females, 7%
are minorities. Additionally, 78% have previous experience in the current county.
Entry Characteristics
Learners must possess basic computer skills.
Prior Experience
78% of the learners have prior experience in John Doe County Schools with the re-
evaluation/redetermination process. While this learning environment will be teaching a new
process, some of the tasks will be the same or similar. Therefore, the majority of learners have
experience gathering many pieces of the needed data in order for the team to make an eligibility
decision. Similarly, although there will be some changes in the order of
re-evaluation/redetermination meetings, the majority of the learners have prior experience
running special education meetings for this county. Additionally, John Doe County Schools uses
an electronic special education management system called SEMS. This program will continue to
be used in the new process and the fact that the majority of learners have experience with this
program will be helpful in this learning environment.
Potential Misconceptions
The following potential misconceptions regarding the new process for the
re-evaluation/redetermination process are possible:
Learners may feel the new process will entail more work. Learners may be concerned that an eligibility determination is being made outside of the
committee meeting. Learners may have the misconception that a child’s eligibility cannot be redetermined
more than one time. Learners may have the misconception that rating scales are a requirement for a
redetermination.
Attitude Toward Content and Academic Motivation
As with any large group, the attitude and academic motivation of learners will be mixed.
Some learners are eager to implement the new process while others are not eager to embrace this
change in procedures. Likewise, some of the professionals are more vested in the students and
the county and therefore are more likely to put in the time and effort to fully understand this
process.
General Learning Preferences
The general learning preferences for the participants of this learning environment will be
mixed with some preferring verbal, some preferring visual, and some preferring hands-on
learning. Information such as this has previously been delivered to this set of learners in a large
group setting, with the director of special education presenting the information verbally, with
information possibly paired with a handout. Utilizing a digital learning environment will allow
all learning preferences to be met.
Part III: Task Analysis
I conducted a task analysis using the procedural analysis method. This task analysis method
requires one to identify the steps required to complete a procedure. This method was selected
because the design project being created involves teaching special education teachers how to
implement a new procedure regarding the redetermination/re-evaluation process in John Doe
County Schools. I began by using index cards to write down the steps of this procedure. Using
the index cards allowed rearranging and adding steps with ease. After completing the index
cards, I created a task analysis outline in a word document. The outline was reviewed
thoroughly to ensure all needed steps were included. This task analysis outline is included
below.
Task Analysis Outline
A. Identify upcoming cases that require a redetermination/re-evaluation conference
1. Review case log that includes all students’ special education eligibility dates
2. Create a list of all students whose 2-year anniversary of special education date will
fall within the school year
3. Also include on list students whose 2-year anniversary of eligibility date falls within
the first month of the following school year (these will need to be completed during
the current school year).
B. Prepare for a redetermination/re-evaluation meeting (using new process)
1. 6 weeks prior to 2-year eligibility date, schedule a Redetermination/Re-evaluation
conference for close to the 2-year date

recommendation
i. If data shows student continues to meet Georgia eligibility
requirements, school psychologist will recommend to redetermine
student’s current eligibility
ii. If data does not clearly show student continues to meet Georgia
eligibility requirements, or if there are concerns in new areas, the
school psychologist will recommend the student undergo a re-
evaluation.
C. Identify paperwork needed to be completed if student’s eligibility is redetermined or if
student is referred for a re-evaluation
1. Locate the “Redetermination/Re-evaluation Conference” form in SEMS (digital

Subject Matter Expert (SME)
I (Carmen McQueen) will serve as the subject matter expert for this project. My formal
education includes a bachelor’s degree in Educational Studies from Emory University in Atlanta,
Georgia, a master’s degree in Reading and Learning Disabilities from the University of Miami in
Coral Gables, Florida, and an Educational Specialist degree from Georgia Southern University in
Statesboro, Georgia. I am currently seeking to add the School Library field to my teaching
certificate.
My primary qualification for serving as SME is my current position as a school psychologist in
the John Doe County School system. This position requires me to be a part of the
redetermination/re-evaluation process. Additionally, special education leadership within our
county has relied on the school psychologists to help revamp this process. Therefore, I have
been involved in this process, have studied the process, and have been part of the team to
develop the new process that streamlines eligibility decisions while following state and federal
guidelines.

The world-view sequence teaches tasks, concepts, or procedures in the chronological order they
would be encountered. Since this project aims to teach learners to use the new special education
process for redetermination/re-evaluation conferences, it was determined that tasks should be
taught in chronological sequence.
Lesson 1: Determining students on your caseload with 2-year eligibility anniversary dates
Objective 1: Given access to SEMS (special education digital document management system),
learners will be able to generate 2-year eligibility anniversary dates.
Objective 1A: To log-in to SEMS
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video demonstrating logging in to the SEMS system
(Cooper, Tindall-Ford, Chandler, & Sweller, 2001).
Generative Strategy: Learners will rehearse this skill by logging into their own SEMS account
five times (Saville, 2011).
Objective 1B: To create caseload list with eligibility dates
Initial Presentation: Students will view a Prezi presentation paired with audio with steps to create
a caseload list. The presentation will show an example of a caseload list.
Generative Strategy: Students will rehearse this task by locating the eligibility dates for five
students in SEMS (Saville, 2011).
Objective 1C: To determine 2-year eligibility anniversary dates that fall within current
school year and first month of the following school year.
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video that states the rule for determining 2-year
anniversary (rule: add 2 years to eligibility date and list students whose date falls within current
school year or first month of the following school year). Video will also show 3 worked
examples of determining 2-year date (Morrison, Ross, Kalman, & Kemp, 2013).
Generative Strategy: Learners will determine 2-year eligibility anniversary for 5 students.
Learners will submit via uploaded video or scan in a word document.
This lesson incorporates Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principle of multiple means of
representation due to content being presented to learners through video, audio, and visual means.
Learners will be able to stop and start the video and audio as needed. Additionally, learners will
be able to express their learning through multiple means with a choice of creating a video or
word document.
Lesson 2: Preparing for Upcoming Redeterminations/Re-evaluation meetings
Objective 2: After learning new process for redetermination/re-evaluation meetings, learners will
identify how to prepare for upcoming redetermination/re-evaluation meetings.
Objective 2A: Recall the first step in process is to obtain parental consent
Objective 2B: Identify data needed for redetermination/re-evaluation meetings
Objective 2C: identify when to meet with school psychologist
Initial Presentation: Learners will read Special Education Handbook section on
Redetermination/Re-evaluation meetings (will be linked and also have text-to-talk available).
Learners will then view a video explaining the process in more detail that shows examples of the
data to be collected.
Generative Strategy: Provide learners with this mnemonic to practice: Can (consent) Dogs (data
collection) Sit (school psychologist) (Rummel, Levin, & Woodward, 2003)?
UDL principles used in lesson 2 include the use of multiple means of representation (print,
audio, video) that can be replayed as needed.
Lesson 3: Choosing the Correct Paperwork
Objective 3: After learning new redetermination/re-evaluation process, learners will be able to
identify paperwork needed to be completed.
Objective 3A: Identify paperwork needed if student’s eligibility is being redetermined.
Objective 3B: Identify paperwork needed if student will be re-evaluated to determine
eligibility.
Initial Presentation: Learners will view a video demonstrating how to locate needed paperwork
in SEMS.
Generative Strategy: Learners will create a video or write a word document explaining the
needed paperwork for a redetermination and for a re-evaluation (Menke, Pressley, Wood,
Woloshyn, Martin, & King (1992).
In lesson 3, learners will have information presented in multiple ways (video with audio) that can
be replayed if needed. Learners will also employ the UDL multiple means of action and
expression principle with a choice of creating a video or word document.
Lesson 4: Tying it all together: Meetings
Objective 4: Learners will understand new agenda for meetings that include a redetermination/re-
evaluation process.
Objective 4A: Demonstrate new agenda for a redetermination/re-evaluation conference
that is a stand-alone meeting.
Objective 4B: Demonstrate new agenda for a redetermination/re-evaluation conference is
part of an Individual Education Plan annual review.
Initial Presentation: Learners will read the Special Education Handbook section on meeting
agendas (will be linked with text-to-talk available) and then watch a video with 2 mock meetings
(one with redetermination/re-evaluation conference as stand-alone meeting and one with
redetermination/re-evaluation conference as part of IEP meeting).
Generative Strategy: Learners will create PowerPoint, Prezi presentation, or video demonstrating
2 meeting agendas (Jonassen, 1988).
Lesson 4 will employ the UDL principles of multiple means of representation (print, audio,
video) and multiple means of expression (choice of PowerPoint, Prezi, or video).
