- The described post-session notes tag each answer by mode and record seconds to the first sign of an answer.
Field notes
The described setup lets an adult add context about a child’s interests and communication, including by reviewing an IEP or therapy report before approving what Buddy should know. The site also describes a 90-second check-in that can suggest updated settings, but says no change takes effect without approval. Post-session notes are meant to record the response mode and time to the first sign of an answer, with spreadsheet export for sharing.
