Excel Graphs Made Easy . Download several Excel spreadsheets that have been pre-formatted to allow you to enter data and to create time-series graphs for common academic measures (CBM, DIBELS) and behavioral measures (time on task, frequency, BOSS). These spreadsheets were designed by Dr. Jim McDougal and student colleagues Karrie Clark and Jacklyn Wilson from SUNY College at Oswego.
Generate Time-Series Graphs On-Line . Enter your student data into the on-line application ChartDog to create time-series graphs that you can print and share with teachers, parents, administrators, and students. ChartDog allows you to mark phase changes that indicate changes to interventions, to plot trendlines, to save your data for future updates, and more.
