Components of Mastery Criteria | Good to Know! | Images | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Minimum Number of Trials to be ran in session | Staff can always collect MORE than the minimum number of trials for a target |  |
| 2 | Percent Correct of the trials that were ran during the session | If the percent correct is MORE than the minimum, it will count towards mastery criteria. | |
| 3 | Consecutive Number of Sessions where the above two components must occur | Sessions do not need to be consecutive on a calendar to count towards mastery criteria. Sessions can be two separate occurrences of data collection. Each time a staff syncs data, this will count as a session. |

On Wednesday, staff collect 8 trials of BLUE. 7 out of the 8 trials are correct (87.5%). This is the 2nd consecutive session towards mastery.
On Thursday, staff collect 7 trials of BLUE. 7 out of the 7 trials are correct (100%). This is the 3rd consecutive session towards mastery.
On Friday, staff collect 4 trials of BLUE. 4 out of the 4 trials are correct (100%). This is NOT the 4th consecutive session towards mastery because the minimum number of trials was not met. This target will now RESEST to 0 days of consecutive sessions towards mastery.
