Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Maybe I am not as tech savvy as I thought but I would think it would be hard to have to look things up on one's phone in the midst of an IEP meeting. I'm visual, though. So perhaps that is the problem I see with it. I have a copy of slaw's book - the actual law. I also copied the state regs as well. I put it in a 3 ring binder and then I stick those sticky-flags to note important points relevant to the meeting or common areas of debate. Now that I read this, I am thinking I am just tech deficient. lol. I have a blackberry but not an iPhone. Roxanna " The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Everything is nicely organized so it's relatively simple to find something if you need it quick and depending on familiarity with the tool -- as with the papers -- could be easier to locate something specific.
