Intervention Plan Buttons

User Story

As an educator viewing the student’s SEL tab, I need to see the intervention plans that have been in place or if there is no intervention plan in place so that I will know if we have addressed the student’s needs.

UI

    • Jrich: Start New School Year: What becomes of intervention plans that were created at the end of the school year for the next school year? Should we rethink what Archived means for these? Right now users cannot un-archive an intervention plan and use it again. Other tools can be un-archived and used again.

    • Given user has selected Tier 2 or Tier 3 for the SEL plan in Create/Edit Plans | View Plans | Classroom | Intervention Tracking, then the button will show either Tier 2 or Tier 3.

Tier Notices

User Story

As an educator who is creating and managing many student’s SEL Intervention Plans, I need a notice telling me when a student’s test score indicates that they are not a Tier 1 so that I can focus my attention on the students who are most in need of an intervention.

    • Given a Tier Notice shows and there is an Archived or Mastered MTSS Intervention Plan, the user can review by clicking on the Plan Intervention button or start a new intervention by clicking Take Action on the Tier Notice.

  • Tier Notices will not be shown for Plan Statuses:

    • Pre-Planning

    • In-Progress

Operation of Tier Notices

  • Given Take Action button is clicked from any of the Tier Notices (Tier 2 or Tier 3), then we show the create intervention plan with the Social Tab Selected. (See image: Create Intervention)

  • Given Take Action is not selected, then the Tier Notice (Tier 2 or Tier 3) remains.

    • Given no user clicks on Take action and DOES NOT create an Intervention Plan (Statuses: Pre-Planning or In-Progress), then the Tier notice IS NOT removed.

  • Given user clicks Take Action and an Intervention Plan is created (Statuses: Pre-Planning or In-progress) when there is an intervention in place with the statuses of (Archived or Mastered), then the newly created plan replaces the old archived or mastered plan. (See section above for Intervention Plans)
