We need a way to set up the Frequency data collection method so Users who select it can create the parameters for data collection using the this method.
User Stories:
I am a teacher who needs to set up the parameters for collecting Frequency data so that Behavior tracking for my Tier 2 and Tier 3 Students will be successful.
I am a teacher who needs to track behaviors without creating a Behavior Plan so that I can track behaviors so that set up is easier.
Acceptance Criteria:
Given I am a user with access to MTSS interventions (all tools or Behavior Tracking enabled) OR Behavior Support and permission to Behavior Support, > Add/Edit Behaviors will see create behaviors button.
Given I am a user with access to MTSS interventions (all tools or Behavior Tracking enabled) OR Behavior Support and permission to Behavior Support, > View Behaviors
Given I am a user who has selected a measurement tool, the select tool circle on the timeline will be filled in with blue and contain a check mark.
Given I am a user who has NOT selected a measurement tool, the select tool circle on the timeline will NOT be filled in with blue and will NOT contain a check mark.
Given I am a user who has completed each of the sections for behavior definition and data settings and saved my work, each item on the timeline will be filled in with blue and contain a checkmark.
Given I am a user who has completed some of the sections for data settings but not others, the incomplete sections will show an outlined blue in the timeline.
Given I am a user who has returned to my incomplete sections for data settings and updated and saved my work, the timeline will now show a filled in blue circle and a check mark.
Given I am a user who has completed a section(s) and selected Save & Go Back, my work on each of the sections that have been completed is saved.
Given I am a user who has completed a section(s) and did NOT select Save & Go Back, my work on each of the sections that I did NOT select Save & Go Back is not saved.

The goal sentence is based on the data collection type. It will be formatted as:
Increase: STUDENT NAME will increase BEHAVIOR NAME to INSERT MASTERY CRITERIA.
Decrease: STUDENT NAME will decrease BEHAVIOR NAME to INSERT MASTERY CRITERIA.
If the user updates the mastery criteria, the hard-coded goal definition sentence will update as well.
The mastery criteria will populate a hard-coded sentence in the goal definition box. This sentence cannot be edited. However, custom text may be entered before and/or after this sentence.
Customizing the Goal Statement and Objective Statements
We will show the information icon next to Customize the Goal Statement and Customize Objective Statement for all data collection types.
Adding and deleting custom text for goal and objectives functions the same way for all data types.
If data exists for the goal, the user will see a message warning them about losing data. If they save, they will lose all data connected to the goal that they are changing.
If user clicks on or hovers over the information icon for Customize the Goal Statement and/or Customize Objective Statement(s), the hint is shown. (See image: Custom Text hint)

Timeline:
If the user has completed Select Tool and Record baseline sections the Timeline has Select Tool and Record Baseline colored in blue with white check mark.
Set Goal in Timeline is outlined in blue.
Buttons:
Go Back takes user to Baseline selection for Frequency (previous screen).
Continue takes user to Track objectives slide.
Business Rules:
Timeline has Select Tool, Record Baseline, Set Goal colored in blue with white check mark and Track objectives outlined in blue.
Select No for tracking objectives.
Track objectives field contains:
No
Yes
Default selection is No.
Select Yes to track objectives:
The Goal Statement entered by User on previous screen is shown in the blue box.
3 objectives will appear as the default.
If the User clicks the X next to an objective, the objective is removed.
If the User clicks on +Add new objective, a field for a new objective will appear.
For each objective, the user must enter a mastery criteria.
If a User does not create mastery criteria, then the objective cannot be used for behavior tracking.
The objective definition box will include a hard-coded sentence based on the mastery criteria. The user may not change this sentence, but may add custom text before and/or after this sentence.
(Copy of old specs)
If objectives are selected, the user must include at least 1 objective.
Increase Behavior
The mastery criteria must increase for each objective. Meaning, the criteria for objective 1 cannot be higher than the criteria for objective 2.
The mastery criteria for the last objective must be equal to the mastery criteria for the goal.
By default, each objective criteria will be evenly distributed in an increasing fashion from the first objective to the last. For example, if my goal is to increase time on task to 30 minutes & I have included 3 objectives, my first objective will be to increase to 10 minutes, my second objective will be to increase to 20 minutes, & my 3rd objective will be to increase to 30 minutes.
This logic will continue & the mastery criteria will update as I add and remove objectives.
Once I begin editing the mastery criteria for any objective, the system will no longer update the criteria for any other objective.
Decrease Behavior
The mastery criteria must decrease for each objective. Meaning, the criteria for objective 1 cannot be lower than the criteria for objective 2.
The mastery criteria for the last objective must be equal to the mastery criteria for the goal.
By default, each objective criteria will be evenly distributed in increments of 10 in a decreasing fashion from the first objective to the last. For example, if my goal is to decrease tantrums to 0 minutes & I have included 3 objectives, my first objective will be to decrease to 20 minutes, my second objective will be to decrease to 10 minutes, & my 3rd objective will be to decrease to 0 minutes.
This logic will continue & the mastery criteria will update as I add and remove objectives.
Once I begin editing the mastery criteria for any objective, the system will no longer update the criteria for any other objective.
The format of the mastery criteria is dependent on the data collection type
The objective definition sentence is based on the data collection type. It will be formatted as:
Increase: STUDENT NAME will increase BEHAVIOR NAME to INSERT MASTERY CRITERIA.
Decrease: STUDENT NAME will decrease BEHAVIOR NAME to INSERT MASTERY CRITERIA.
If the user updates the mastery criteria, the hard-coded objective definition sentence will update as well.
If User clicks on +Add new objective, an additional objective section is added.
User can have up to 5 objectives.
Additional objectives follow same rules for increase and decrease behavior.
Buttons:

The users selection for fields 1 and 2 become locked in the objectives. (See image: Objective 1)
Given changes to fields 1 and 2 are made in the goal statement, then those changes are carried over into each of the objectives.
User can edit the the fields a and b in the objectives. (See image: Objective 1)
Users cannot edit fields 1 and 2 in the objective statements.
Interval follows the same rules for both increase and decrease.
Frequency -Decrease - Intensity -Objectives
Given either increase (with intensity) or decrease (with intensity) and objectives are included, then user can edit the fields in the goal statement. (See image: Decrease-Intensity-Objectives)
The users selection for fields 1 and 2 become locked in the objectives.
Given changes to fields 1 and 2 are made in the goal statement, then those changes are carried over into each of the objectives.
User can edit fields a and b in the objectives.
Duration-Decrease-Intensity-Objectives follows the same rules.
Field C-Decrease
Field C edits within the objective statements are dependent upon the selection made in the goal statement and the preceding objective.
Example: Given the user included 5 intensity levels and 5 objectives and selected Level 2 to be the goal then,
Objective 1 could contain any of the following: Level 5, Level 4, Level 3 Level 2
Given user selects Level 4 for the first objective then,
Objective 2 could contain any of the following: Level 4, Level 3, Level 2
Given user selects Level 3 for the second objective then,
Objective 3 can contain any of the following: Level 3, Level 2
Given user selects Level 3 for the fourth objective then,
Objective 4 can contain any of the following: Level 3, Level 2
Objective 5 is the same as the goal and is locked.
Please note: In this example the user could never select Level 1 because it is lower than the goal they set.
Duration-Decrease-Intensity-Objectives follows the same rules.
Frequency -Increase - Intensity -Objectives
Follow same rules for editing fields 1, 2, a, b as explained in Frequency-Increase/Decrease-No intensity-objectives included.
Duration-Increase-Intensity-Objectives follows the same rules.
Field C-Increase
Field C edits within the objective statements are dependent upon the selection made in the goal statement and the preceding objective.
Example: Given User included 5 intensity levels and 5 objectives and selected Level 4 to be the goal then,
Objective 1 could contain any of the following: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4.
Given user selects Level 2 for the first objective then,
Objective 2 could contain any of the following: Level 2, Level 3, Level 4
Please note that Level 1 was no longer available for objective 2 since the user had already moved onto Level 2
Given user selects Level 2 for Objective 3 then,
Objective 3 could contain any of the following: Level 2, Level 3, Level 4
Given user selects Level 3 for Objective 4 then,
Objective 5 is the same as the goal and is locked.
Please note: In this example the user could never select Level 5 because it is higher than the goal they set.
Duration-Increase-Intensity-Objectives follows the same rules.
