In this episode, we’re diving into the sometimes overwhelming—but incredibly important—world of data collection. We talk about why we take data, how it helps us support Alec, and how we use it not just for his progress, but also to guide and support our team.
We share how we decide what to track, when too much is too much, and how we’ve learned to strike a balance between meaningful data and practical, sustainable routines. We also touch on celeration charts—a tool with a solid place in the ABA world, but if we’re being totally honest, they were our least favorite. And that’s okay! The goal is finding a method that works for your child and your team.
We discuss some of our favorite skills tracking tools such as:
Dr James Partington's ABLLS: the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills
AND
Steve Ward's: Teaching Good Learner Repertoires
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to simplify your approach, this episode is packed with real-life examples, lessons learned, and encouragement to make data work for you—not overwhelm you.
