Abstract

The research presented in this paper proposes a model of individualized educational planning (IEP) for children and adolescents. This model will be implemented as a mobile device application to be utilized, both, in residential and semi-residential care settings by caregivers. The development of this tool is part of a multi-decade national observation and research program that continues to this day. Through the utilization of this tool, the program pursues two main strongly interconnected objectives. Firstly, the program aims to encourage children and adolescents to participate and to be heard in the process of co-constructing individual educational plans in residential and semi-residential settings. Additionally, it seeks to stabilize the process of assessing the quality of care provided by caregivers in such settings. Following a description of the reasons for choosing this model of an individualized education project, as well as the methodological requirements for the use of this tool on a substantive and non-formal basis, we outlined how these features may be used to achieve these objectives.
