Complete an Engagement Rubric (ER) Form

For a student whose level of cognitive development would be considered awareness and is unable to participate even minimally in the Performance Tasks at the lower complexity level for any standard within a content area, the IEP team may consider using an Engagement Rubric (ER) to measure a student’s engagement and attention to academic activities.

Students for whom the Engagement Rubric is appropriate must use the Engagement Rubric for all content areas.

Students participating in the WA-AIM via the Engagement Rubric must be presented with one academic activity for baseline and one activity for final for each content area. The activity should be presented to the student alongside his or her peers. The student's level of engagement with each content's academic activity should be documented on separate Engagement Rubrics.

The academic activity does not need to be aligned to any standard, just the content area.
