WA – IDAR: Individual Documentation of
Assessment/Observation Results
Individual evaluators will fill out individual IDARs for each checked Area in the Evaluation Procedures and results
Section. Multiple IDARs may be created for each checked Area. IDARs with subsections such as the Academics
and Communication Areas must reflect these subsections.
The IDAR in the example above is a Communications IDAR. The conclusions section contains checkboxes that
activate textboxes for individual sub-topics (language, articulation, voice, fluency). The Academic IDAR will
have similar sub-topics (reading, written language, math). All the rest will have a single textbox implemented
without the controlling checkbox.
Within each IDAR, the user will have the ability to select statements from a Goal Book. See table below for
required Goal Book format (Type = Statement).

SECURITY
User or group level security permissions will control access and functionality based on least restrictive settings
(group or user level security). In other words, a user assigned to a group (or groups) will have both user and
group level permissions, and the least restrictive settings will take precedence. Since all users are assigned to
the SPIPUBLIC group, it is best practice to uncheck all permissions for this group, as well as all permissions at the
user level. This will ensure the group level permissions are the least restrictive. Administrators would have all
permissions by default.
To view or maintain security permissions for an existing user or group, navigate as follows: Security > Manage
Groups or Manage Users. Select the group or user and click on the Permissions tab. Scroll down to the section
illustrated below and select the applicable check boxes.
The permissions check boxes will control access and functionality as follows.
Permission Checked On Not Checked On
