During the Meeting - Objective Criteria/ Reach Agreement (1 point): After you have generated a list of brainstorming options, in this section of your assignment you will: Decide which option is the most agreeable to everyone, including a justification of how this agreement meets each team member’s interests, options, and perceptions.

Federal guidelines require children who have an Individual Education Plan (IEP) to have a Transition Plan for post-graduation beginning after their 16th birthday and, in some cases, as early as after their 14th birthday. This meeting is separate from the IEP meeting and focuses on the student’s interests, independence, and self-determination (Wright & Darr-Wright, 2013). The purpose of the Transition Plan meeting is for all stakeholders in the student’s education to help plan an independent future for the student. According to IDEA 2004, Transition Services refers to: is designed to be a results-oriented process, that is focused on improving the academic and functional achievement of the child with a disability to facilitate the child's movement from school to post-school activities, including post-secondary education, vocational education, integrated employment (including supported employment),

(As cited in Wright & Darr-Wright, 2013, para 1).As noted above, IDEA has outline what is required, but parents oftentimes find the transition meeting overwhelming and intimidating with so many team member experts involved in the transition process and with unclear terms and ‘jargon’ (Bangser, 2008). Initial Post - Imagine you are a parent of a child with a disability who is preparing for a transition meeting. Read the resource IDEA

Additionally, provide an answer to your questions with at least one scholarly resource that supports your chosen answer. For more classes visit www.ese633entirecourse.com
