Accuracy data tracks the percentage of correct responses or successful attempts in a task, often expressed as a ratio or percentage. This data type is especially valuable for IEP goal tracking in areas like reading fluency, math problem-solving, or correct sentence construction. Frequency data is particularly valuable for understanding patterns in behaviors or skills that occur repeatedly.

For instance, it can track how often a student raises their hand during a lesson, greets a peer, or uses a self-regulation strategy. This type of IEP goal data provides clear, measurable insights into consistency and progress, which helps educators determine the effectiveness of interventions and support strategies. This data type is particularly useful for tracking IEP goals related to attention span, task persistence, or self-regulation, such as how long a student can remain focused on a task or how quickly they recover from a disruptive event.
