I-Connect Self-Monitoring vs. Be+ (Be Positive) Utilizzo e statistiche
Who should use I-Connect?
Research has proven I-Connect to be very successful for students with a diverse range of learning needs and/or disabilities, I-Connect has been effectively used to improve academic and behavioral outcomes for students with diagnosed intellectual disability, autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, emotional and behavioral disorders, and specific learning disability. We believe the age range of individuals who could benefit from using I-Connect spans from elementary to adult and includes individuals with and without disabilities. The I-Connect application is customizable so the self-monitoring feature could also serve and benefit a wide range of needs!
What is I-Connect?
The I-Connect application and intervention is a self-monitoring application with a web application to set up users, customize monitoring settings and to view data over time. It encourages active class participation, assignment completion, engagement in appropriate help-seeking behavior, adherence to rules, and attention to the teachers, supervisors, or parents. I-Connect enables students and users to set achievable self-monitoring goals and to monitor behavior aligned with success. Self-monitoring can establish higher levels of independence and can improves academic outcomes!
Where can users Self-Monitor?
While schools and classrooms have been a primary place I-Connect is used, I-Connect also includes Work, Home, and Community location settings. The sub-categories within each location are completely customizable enabling users to self-monitor anywhere and everywhere!
I-Connect is Customizable!
I-Connect comes with a set of three self-monitoring prompts (on-task engagement, behavioral appropriateness, and comprehension). Each of these prompts can be customized to best fit any student or user. For example, you can customize the self-monitoring prompt, “are you on task?” instead to “are you listening to Mrs. Smith?” You could customize the behavioral appropriateness category from “Are you being appropriate?” to, “Are you keeping your hands to yourself?” Because all students and users have unique monitoring needs, the frequency of monitoring is fully customizable. This feature is great because you can choose either a fixed or variable schedule of questions or prompting. The I-Connect development team usually suggests using the variable schedule, as it varies time between prompts (e.g., about every 5 minutes ranging from 3 minutes to 7 minutes), so that the user monitoring does not begin to anticipate when a prompt may occur. Some students may need a self-monitoring question/prompt to be asked once every 2 minutes while others may only need it every 20 minutes, every aspect of the I-Connect experience is completely customizable to your students’ or users’ needs!
Data Collection in Real Time.
I-Connect is better than other paper and pencil methods or timer apps because it collects data as the user monitors! Data is saved, allowing students, mentors and parents to track improvement and view the monitoring data history at any time. I-Connect organizes user self-monitoring data into easy-to-read graphs that are great for sharing with parents & mentors and provide meaningful data to consider when creating IEP’s!
One size app fits ALL!
Whether you’re trying to help an elementary student or an adult, an individual or an entire school district, I-Connect is an effective and powerful tool for setting goals and improving academic, professional and behavioral outcomes!

Teachers are herculean multi-taskers, and even the best multi-taskers need a little help.
From the Center on PBIS, Be+ is a free app with built-in timers and alarms reminding you when to use effective practices -
like specific praise - throughout the day. Use it in the classroom, home, or anywhere!
Here’s how Be+ works.
Set Up Reminders for Specific Behaviors
When you need to increase your use of key practices in your classroom,
Be+ gives you an easy way to set up those reminders.
Each reminder you create operates on its own timer and takes advantage of the notification system built into your device.
The reminders you set are entirely up to you. It comes pre-loaded with Opportunities to Respond and Specific Praise,
but why stop there? How about drinking water or taking a mindful breath?
For example, set a reminder to go off about every 6 minutes to look for and acknowledge students who are on-task.
Every six minutes, your device vibrates or otherwise notifies you to look for that behavior.
Create Alarms on Scheduled Days and Times
One way to set students up for success is precorrection,
reminding students what you want to see before challenging situations occur.
Be+ lets you set alarms alerting you to deliver those precorrections on time.
When to remind students about expectations is just one example of any alarm you can set.
Set up one-time alarms to go off today or create a recurring alarm to go off at the same time on the days you choose,
like greeting your students at the door each school day.
Keep Count of the Behaviors that Matter to You
Do you want to know how often you acknowledge others each day?
Be+ can do that too. Once you pick what you want to count, start the timer and get counting!
At the end of the day, you’ll know exactly how many times you acknowledged students or gave them an opportunity to respond.
What else might you want to count? The options are unlimited.
Track and Share Your Progress
Be+ comes with graphs in two viewing modes:
-Session: This graph displays the rate of behaviors counted during each session you started.
-Progress: Set a start and end date and check how your rates have changed during that time. Share your data with others right from the app.
Use Be+ to email any of the data you collect and share your progress!
