How to Use AI to Revise Old IEP Goals
Jul 16, 2025Does your child’s IEP still say “will improve behavior”? If the goals haven’t changed in years, or aren’t being met, it’s time for a revision. AI can help you rebuild outdated goals into something measurable and useful.
Rewriting in Layers
Start by copying the current goal. Then prompt ChatGPT: “Rewrite this IEP goal to meet SMART criteria. Add two quarterly benchmarks and daily tracking.”
Need a more inclusive version? Ask: “Create a version of this goal for general education with in-class support.”
Why It Works
AI won’t know your child, but it does know structure. You bring the content and AI brings the formatting logic. Together, you get draft goals that you can bring to the team with confidence.
Too many IEPs carry old language forward. AI helps you propose what’s needed now; goals that reflect your child’s current needs and future growth.
