An event line is different than a phase line. Phases are hardcoded or proactively planned in the program builder as phases or conditions that a target goes through and are planned out (e.g. Baseline, Intervention, Probe, With Prompts, Without Prompts, Maintenance etc). Events are added to a graph as events occur or after they occur. These are extraneous events that can have an impact on the behaviors or rate of learning (e.g. medication changes, life events, environmental changes, team changes).
Adding Events to Graphs and a Learner's Timeline
Add an event to a program by going to a graph of a target that you would like to add the event to.
Select the graph and click on the +Event icon in the top right corner.
You will see a "+Event" popup.
Fill out the Label (this is what will be displayed on the event line, e.g "new teacher at school").
Select a line for a single event that affects all data moving forward.
Select Region for an event that affects a region of time (e.g. Therapist Sub for a week)
Choose the color of the line. The line will show up as dashed, event lines are always dashed.
Select which programs you want the event to display. or "all" if you want the event line displayed in all programs (and all targets). You can only select programs and not targets. The event will show up on all targets in that program.
Notes will show up when you hover over the event line on the graph.
Click submit at the bottom of the popup.
Adding events will add a line to your graphs but also an event to your learner's timeline under "Completed" (scroll past "In Progress") in "Timeline & Reports". The event will show up like this in the timeline. You can also add events directly to the timeline in the top right corner "+Event" icon.
Editing and Deleting Events
To edit or delete existing events, you will need to locate and selects the event in the timeline under "Completed" (scroll past "In Progress") in "Timeline & Reports". Select the event you want to edit or delete and then click on the icons in the top right corner.
