Met with prospective client

I met with my prospective client, Emily Whistleman, at Broadway High School.  I began my needs analysis.  She teaches World History in a collaborative setting (exceptional education students integrated).  While her Exe.Ed. students all have trouble keeping organized notebooks, so do some of her other students.  Not only does organization count as a test grade, but it is imperative for good study habits.  I looked at a few of the notebooks and was astonished at the number of pages of notes, maps, worksheets, etc. that filled the books.  The paper trail is excessive and I think I can incorporate technology to help reduce this matter.  I certainly think this warrants the use of an ID plan.  However, there will be too much red tape to interview students in the time frame I have.  Therefore, I will seek the input of their resource teacher to gain the closest possible student perspective. I think I am going to enjoy this challenge.
