Copy behaviors check box
A "copy behaviors from another student" check box will show after you enroll your first student. This will allow you to quickly copy behaviors from a preexisting student to save time if they are similar.
You are now ready to add the behaviors to track for this student.
5. Create the first behavior, event, observation, or goal. You can personalize for each student. Name the behavior (use your language or language directly from an educational plan, it's up to you) (see image below).
6. The description is only visible when using the browser tracking. It will not show in the mobile app due to the limited space, so you can complete or skip for trial purposes. You can complete the description at anytime.
7. If you are going to track the behavior as a duration, check the "Duration" check box. This requires 2 clicks to document (a start and stop). If this is not checked the behavior will be tracked with only frequency. (see image below)
