FastBridge's new progress monitoring (PM)/intervention scheduling process uses a different approach, which means it’s time to break some old habits and learn new tricks.
As you've probably discovered by now, there are no more progress monitoring groups! At least for academic (reading/math) PM; behavior PM setup remains the same and requires that you click the link at the top of the PM page to access it.
With the new interface, instead of creating a progress monitoring group for academic PM, you create a progress monitoring (and intervention) plan for an individual student or multiple students at once. Instead of a list of PM groups, you'll see a list of your students and their scheduled PM, with easy-to-use filters at the top.
We’ve outlined the majority of the new processes in a series of articles in Iowa Resources > Progress Monitoring (also linked below), so you can find the new information easily.
Important! There are some significant issues with the new PM interface to be aware of. As you're learning about the new PM page, please also visit this link to learn about the known issues and workarounds: Iowa: Known Issues with PM Interface
