A Special Education Expert Witness may compare the services, instructional supports, accommodations, schedules, goals, and other provisions stated in the IEP with service logs, classroom records, progress reports, attendance information, staff documentation, and communications. This comparison can help identify which provisions were documented as delivered, where implementation differed from the written plan, and whether gaps or changes appear in the available record.
Progress reports, academic data, classroom work, assessments, goal tracking, and instructional records can show how a student's performance changed over time.
