MyGoalPal makes DRC use even easier by eliminating the need for paper copies, reminding teachers to score DRC goals, reminding parents to provide rewards, and alerting users when a change in goals may be necessary. Helpful for many different classroom concerns. DRCs have been shown to be effective for many common classroom concerns, including academic productivity, following classroom/school rules, peer relationships, teacher relationships, being responsible for belongings and homework. Increases home-school communication. MyGoalPal provides the opportunity for immediate, positive feedback about child behavior. Frequent communication allows users to catch problems early and work together to support student success. Monitor success over time. MyGoalPal’s automatic progress monitoring allows users to make changes to DRC goals to effectively shape behavior over time. The progress monitoring system also allows users to track how children are responding to other interventions (e.g., medication, IEP or 504 accommodations). Fun and engaging for kids! Positive feedback and rewards help children stay motivated and on-track to meet academic and behavioral goals.
