Practical Tools for School Psychologists:	EXCEL GRAPHS 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

Chart Dog	TIME-SERIES GRAPHS 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.
