Children, 35(2), 30–34.

This article proffers a solution to a problem that all teachers face in trying to find the time to collect data on their students and still teach. It recommends that students with disabilities use Microsoft Excel to record and graph data pertaining to their academic or social behavior. The article outlines the steps involved in creating a self-graphing process in the classroom, which include preparing the computer and training the students to enter their own data. Self-graphing is beneficial for students because it allows them to monitor their progress, and for teachers because it allows them to devote more time to teaching.
