We need a way to set up the Interval 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 Interval data so that Behavior tracking for my Tier 2 and Tier 3 Students will be successful.
Acceptance Criteria:
Given I am a user with access to Behavior Support OR MTSS interventions (all tools or Behavior Tracking enabled) and permission to Behavior Support, > Add/Edit Behaviors will see create behaviors button.
Given I am a user with access to Behavior Support OR MTSS interventions (all tools or Behavior Tracking enabled) and permission to Behavior Support, > View Behaviors
Given I am a user who has recorded a baseline for increase interval without intensity in data express and returned to Create Data tracking, the average interval per day is shown without intensity levels and is not editable.
Given I am a user who has selected increase or decrease interval without intensity for Partial Interval OR Whole Interval OR Momentary Time Sample, the hard coded goal statement will match the hard coded goal statement from account setting for increase interval without intensity.
Given I am a user who has set a goal, the customized goal statement will show with text fields before and after the highlighting the hard coded language.
Given I am a user who has set a goal and selected YES for track objectives, the hard coded goal statement will show on the track objectives screen.
Given I am a user who has selected YES for track objectives to increase a behavior, three hard coded objectives will be calculated and shown based on an evenly distributed increase increment from the first to the last objective.
Given I am a user who has selected YES for track objectives to decrease a behavior, three hard coded objectives will be calculated and shown based on an evenly distributed decrease increment from the first to the last objective.
Given I am a user who makes changes to the the number of objectives from the above example, the calculations will reset to reflect an evenly distributed increase increment from the first to the last objective.
Given I am a user who has included 5 objectives, I will NOT see the +Add new objective link.
Given I am a user who has selected YES for track objectives, the first hard coded objective will NOT show an X an will NOT be able to be deleted by the User.
Given I am a user who has completed all sections of Behavior Definition and Data Settings, the success message “Success, You are ready to start tracking the behavior.” shows on the done screen.
Given I am a user who has not completed all sections of Behavior Definition and Data Settings, the success message does not show on the done screen.

Business Rules: (copy of old specs)
We will show a default mastery criteria based on the account settings.
The format of the mastery criteria is dependent on the data collection type
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.
Setting a goal is required.
Timeline:
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 (previous screen).
Continue takes user to Track objectives slide.
Save and exit saves the behavior tracking as a draft and exits the modal.
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.
Selecting Objectives is optional.
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 objective 4 section is added.
User can have up to 5 objectives.
Additional objectives follow same rules for increase and decrease behavior.
Buttons:
To continue to Done screen for Interval, the User selects the Continue button.
To return to the goal selection screen for Interval, the User selects Go Back.
To save the work and exit the modal, user clicks on Save and exit button.
Done Screen
UI:
