The methods and techniques for observing student behavior offer a straightforward and effective means of collecting valuable data on student engagement. The SOTO App serves as a practical tool to facilitate "On-Task / Off-Task" observations, providing a modern alternative to traditional methods.

The SOTO App features a user-friendly interface designed to streamline the behavioral observation process, making it quick and accessible for educators and researchers alike. Its primary goal is to enhance data collection accuracy while reducing the time and effort typically involved in producing reports.

Replacing manual recording with paper, pen, and stopwatch, the app captures observation data through simple checkbox selections. It automatically manages timed intervals throughout the observation session, ensuring consistency and reliability.

Observers can indicate whether a student is “On-Task” by selecting options such as “Academically or Passively Engaged.” If a student is “Off-Task,” further distinctions can be recorded, including categories like Off-Task Motor, Off-Task Verbal, or Off-Task Passive.

Upon completing an observation session, the app allows for rapid generation of reports that include percentage statistics along with visual representations such as graphs and charts. These visual tools facilitate effective communication of student engagement levels to parents and colleagues, providing a clear comparison of individual performance relative to peers.

Key advantages of the SOTO App include:

  • Preparedness for on-demand on-task observations in any setting
  • Elimination of manual timing devices like clocks or timers
  • Reduction of paperwork and manual record-keeping
  • Automatic calculation of percentage data and creation of visual summaries
  • Ability to email reports, complete with graphs and charts, for reporting purposes
  • Customizable observation settings, including:
    • Observation interval durations
    • Frequency of peer comparison recordings
    • Notification preferences, such as vibration alerts before each interval (note: this feature requires an iPhone)
