- Title
Goal Attainment Scaling: A Method for Evaluating Special Education Services.
- Authors
Maher, Charles A.
- Abstract
Goal attainment scaling (GAS) is presented in this paper as a useful approach for evaluating special education services at the local education agency (LEA) level. Utilization of the approach by school practitioners allows for individualization of program goals for a range of special education service programs. In the paper, the nature and scope of the GAS method are described, its applications to evaluating special education services at the LEA level are reported, and considerations in the implementation of the approach are discussed.
