Great post! I enjoyed reading you post and found the chart comparing the differences between an IEP and an IFSP very appealing. I believe both forms of educational plans are still used today. However, I believe that IEP's are more commonly used in schools. In your post you mention how an IEP demonstrates the need of an individual with disabilities. Meanwhile, an IFSP focuses on the services the family needs to help the child. It's interesting that one only focuses on the needs of the child and the other one on how the services the family may need to help the child. I have learn about IEP's but knew nothing about the IFSP plan until I read the chapter. The chart you created helped me to better understand the educational plan I already knew
