I work directly with students receiving special education services and their teachers on the Universal Life Skills program, which is geared toward empowering students with skills that prevent and address interfering behavior.

This year I have had the pleasure of working with 5 classrooms on a weekly basis in Watertown, MA., all remotely with bug-in-ear (ear buds) support. It has been awesome, and I have learned much from this experience.

For data collection on measuring student learning, classrooms made progress across different skills at their own pace. This meant different skills targeted at different times in different classrooms, and, sometimes, we skipped certain skills.

This led to many different versions of data-collection sheets for printing out and recording student performance.

I built 3 HTML tools from which specific skills can be selected and a corresponding data-sheet will be generated. Moreover, I made three different ways to collect the same data, which allows each classroom to choose the version they prefer. These tools were inspired by the teachers' suggestions at Hosmer Connections Program.

One main point is that anyone with a HTML generating tool can create personalized software (Yes, you need to use the best models and probably know how to use Claude Code or Codex, as examples). And yes, this is “vibe coded,” and it lives on your computer as an HTML file (it is not hosted on a database on the internet). That noted: It works, and you can continue to customize for the tool for any data-collection sheet you need for your students and classroom.
