Two Roads Diverged in the Woods
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

(from the classic poem by Robert Frost),

The website that lets us truly enjoy teaching the learning handicapped of all ages
"Fighting ignorance with information"

My training: (1) Williston Academy Boarding School in Mass. (2) Northwestern Univ. (3) Peabody College/Vanderbilt Univ. (single-subject research design; special ed). (4) Columbia Univ (computer programming/technology) + Teachers College/Columbia Univ (awarded federal research grant applying discrim tech to formally diagnosed autistic handicapped learners). (5) 8+ years refining award-winning FACTS+ software Curriculum in multiple classrooms within the New York City Dept of Education. (6) Numerous publications and dozens of workshops focusing on software applications with students rigorously diagnosed as learning handicapped (see below). (By the way, Happy Hedbring established the first computer lab for autistics in the New York City public school system.)

Please submit any query about the no-nonsense information presented below to
DrHedbring@aol.com       or       DrHedbring@ProgramSteppe.com

Insulted by the same old tiresome lies, political babble, predictable sound bites, extremist stupidity? If so, you absolutely will find FACTS+ refreshing. I'm much too old and ill to make the commonplace sound profound. Believe me, you will find the instructional content immediately helpful and the supporting teaching resources a breath of much-needed fresh air. All questions deemed legit will be answered P.M.F.W. (PrettyMuchForthWith).

Everyone seeking classroom instruction, lesson plans, or ideas, topics, suggestions, or research assistance for term papers, presentations, thesis, research study will for sure find it flashing within FACTS+ .... or I'm a monkey's uncle (what?)

Years of feedback suggests that FACTS+ content is directly appropriate for the four combinations of personal motivation and skills set forth below. FACTS+ can help the weakest link as well as those who are autodidactic and supererogative (ok, ok autochthonous types too -- smile!)


Regardless of Skill or Motivation, Please Read ALL Information Below Closely

FACTS+ PURPOSE: The primary purpose of the forever free FACTS+ Curriculum is to assist teachers, families, autistics, aphasiacs, the elderly like me and so many others learn, recall, and practice basic everyday information and coping skills more easily, more quickly, more individually. (Believe me, I know.)
        Accordingly, the dozens upon dozens upon dozens of practical activities offer unlimited and unparalleled opportunities to teach and/or practice a nearly exhaustive library of critically important everyday skills -- for free. It's my happy contribution to all who are dedicated to making a positive instructional difference to those requiring instructional support of one form or another.

FACTS+ WHAT YOU GET: The forever free FACTS+ Curriculum brings research-based direct instruction to you. That means NO distracting flashing colors, no distracting noises/sounds, no distracting animation, no multi-media distractions research scientists have documented for decades interfere with rates of learning and retention.
        With FACTS+, clear distinctions are made between reinforcement and "try again" screens. And such distinctions are faded out as the developmental task becomes more difficult. In addition, where appropriate, some modules branch between more difficult and "easier" tasks, depending upon number of errors tracked (yet again, research-driven).
        FACTS+ is research rich, data-driven and no nonsense. Correct: NO NONSENSE. Nearly everyone these days is afraid to stray from conventional, predictable thinking for fear of being jumped on by some know-nothing, attention-seeking flashpan fringe of one idiotic ilk or another. The "best and the brightest" is but a fast fading memory....
        ....well, except for Happy FACTS+. I am absolutely certain ("I may be wrong, but I am not in doubt!") that you will enjoy the best and brightest content available on point with the stated module purpose. FACTS+ will prove to be a "Eureka!" experience, perhaps even forensic, given the money-draining pretenders for sale. In any event please remember, prove me wrong and earn some large and serious remuneration.
        FACTS+ is accompanied by a 9,000 reference list of rigorously pre-screened legacy research citations that time and again over the course of half a century and more, documents the approach FACTS+ does its best to use throughout the 100s of activities embedded in the curriculum. FACTS+ is no-excuse, no-nonsense, highly accountable research based activities designed to help caring teachers and families help the elderly, the legitimately defined autistic students and other learning handicapped individuals learn as much as possible as efficiently as possible. And it's free.

FACTS+ forever free! Happily, because forever free, the FACTS+ Curriculum is not available at any storefront or website trolling for your hard-earned money.

                    

FACTS+ THE award-winning curriculum for so many of the learning handicapped, for those with legitimate autism or autistic-like behavior sets, for the functionally retarded, the developmentally delayed, we the elderly (ok, 'senior citizens' to some), the learning disabled, the receptive language impaired, those learning English as a second language, and many K-5 young learners. If there is a learning handicap and the learner exhibits a measure of finger dexterity, FACTS+ can be A STEPPE Ahead In Class.

FACTS+ 30+ years of no-nonsense rigorous classroom-driven development, based on the positive, published results of my federally funded research grant that served as my Teachers College/ Columbia University doctoral dissertation. FACTS+ was used and revised daily over 8 years in several New York City public schools with (legitimately diagnosed) autistic and other severely learning handicapped students.
     To wit, FACTS+ was classroom-tested tough in the largest school district in the western world -- for years and years and years, day in and day out, literally! (Maybe that is where I broke my bloody neck and got my spinal cord injury at age 53 and not from roller blade racing in Western Australia along the Indian Ocean after all!)

Yes!Please click here to enjoy some 1980s(!) classroom photos where FACTS+ emerged from my doctoral research grant and was refined daily for years.

FACTS+ "Guarantee"? Surely thou jests! Heck, we pay you! We all know that at least some of those so-called "guarantees" we see on TV, hear on radio or get battered by in print may technically be legit. But did you ever try to collect? We are given more excuses, more run-arounds, offered everything except our money back in most cases until we generally just give up.
     FACTS+ is so so different. As I put in writing time and again, you be the first to meet the stated criteria (and there are oodles of opportunities to win) and you absolutely WILL get a check as stated. And notice that in one or two cases I even eagerly reward non-winning efforts!)
     My sole concern is that those really into the literature, techniques, and research shake a leg! Given my health, I have good days, but mostly very tough pain filled days (severe paresthesia, headaches, ad nauseum). Narcotic-based meds do well to help me cope, though I know my months are dwindling. And all my pledges to those who really care to make a difference -- well, when I go, those promises end as stated repeatedly often FACTS+. So grease dem dere wheels and let's get amovin'.

FACTS+ Intuitive! -- forever free. FACTS+ is intuitive. It is what it appears: A clickable series of 100s of practical instructional activities so obvious, so easy to use, so "aha!" that just about anyone can pick and choose and understand the happy software toute suite. FACTS+: your time-saving 'thank-you' teaching assistant.

FACTS+ Research! -- Research-based, research-driven, research-rich! And a huge searchable, editable database you can add to that documents the decisions made during all phases of the FACTS+ Curriculum development process. No stupid bells and whistles here. The legitimately diagnosed learning handicapped have learning handicaps (hello?).
      Classroom-tested FACTS+ addresses those handicaps from an "empirical" research-rich perspective. Forever free FACTS+ reflects the research you have learned in special education, abnormal/developmental psych, and human development coursework prevalent in quality-level university programs.
             Quick example: Executive Function is critical to success of the learning handicapped (see Dimond & Lee, Science, 2011) -- including computer exercise and repetition in particular. You'll find no software does either more creatively than FACTS+.

FACTS+ Just about every instructional module lists the skills taught or practiced -- a big help for IEPs, parent conferences, evaluations, transition planning, college term papers, all kinds of presentations and on and on....

FACTS+ Every teacher-specific FACTS+ instructional module includes a drop-down menu list of as many as 2 dozen topics.
      Each drop-down topic hopefully imparts critically useful information and also hopefully whets the intellectual/ academic appetites of high motivators to pursue and update the content the topic introduces. Most modules also offer clever, high energy teachers and university students many many opportunities to earn significant amounts of money for finding content that exceeds the efforts of FACTS+. Go for it!
                    

FACTS+ Overtime pay! Download, use, enjoy, and know FACTS+ well enough to earn extra money from the opportunities FACTS+ offers to partially pay next semester's tuition or make a down payment on a dream goodie! It's all about motivation.

FACTS+ Instructional scaffold! No one, no software, no curriculum offers more support. That is why if you are the first to find anything I agree is better, you win major money! Where else is such a challenge, such a written guarantee, such support offered so openly, so clearly, and in writing? The FACTS+ Curriculum is your scaffold that provides the vision, the foundation, the reliable outline, the materials, the organization, the resources even the low skilled, low motivated can find attractive.

FACTS+ Service Dog Exercising!: Here and NOW! If you need a break, please take one and learn now how you can so easily exercise many of the specific dog breeds I recommend in FACTS+ for those with catastrophic personal injuries.
           Simply turn up your sound, goto Youtube.com, type in dogee, and click on Coogee - The (C)Racy Dogee. Then sit back and roar a bundle. The 'Prius training' video is absolutely hilarious -- and it shows you how smart small breeds like Rat Terriers and Jack Russells are, if vigorously exercised daily.

FACTS+ 'Standalone' option: Some toasty FACTS+ modules we already have written to run independently as well as within the Happy FACTS+ Curriculum framework. (Slide the cursor over the 'Standalones' pull-down menu below and click a FACTS+ standalone module to download.) These already completed standalones are free of course. If my health holds up, I'll convert a few more to run independently as well.
          Yes, I will re-code most any FACTS+ module so it will run independently on its own. This is a major time-consuming task and there will be a minimum $350 prepaid fee involved and will depend very much on the state of my health at the time of your request. Time will tell.

FACTS+ Freq, Duration, Latency, Interval: Called STARS, this FACTS+ module delightfully eases the hassle of collecting such data. In fact, if you are the first I agree who finds anything better, I will send you $1,000! Yes indeed! The module is absolutely that good. Go ahead: Prove me wrong. Come on, I dare ya'. LOL.

FACTS+ Some Sourcecode included: For certain FACTS+ modules I have included the sourcecode. Why? There are a few administration modules [viz, definitions, instructions] I believe teachers and administrators might want to change or add to in order to better fit FACTS+ to a specific setting. So be it!

FACTS+ 'Tweakability': Yes, I will re-code most any FACTS+ module to make it even more individual-specific (assuming that is possible). The per-task fee starts at $350 with final cost depending on complexity of the changes and time involved -- and my health.

FACTS+ Indeed, FACTS+ will run on a computer as ancient and sluggish as my geriatric 2002 Dell Latitude LS Pentium 3   500 with but 256megs of RAM and a barebones 20gig hard drive.   FACTS+ did install on just such a test WindowsXP system without a hitch -- as my service dog Coogee and I snoozed away some quality time together....
        (No worries, mate: Installation of the All- at- Once version takes about 90 seconds on a 2.4Ghz system with 4gig of memory.)

FACTS+ Extra Credit! Oh yes, almost forgot! Once again supererogators win! 5 gifts of $500 each will be donated to those who answer four of five (sort of) tough questions regarding the Happy FACTS+ Curriculum (and admittedly, that covers a lot of content).
        High motivators who really do grasp the reasons why forever free FACTS+ won a major national award will -- I say WILL -- win one or more of those gifts. They will fully appreciate what FACTS+ has to offer, will read closely the teacher-oriented pull-down support menus and then I bet will email me with '$500 gift challenge' in the subject box. The challenge question will be straightforward, we will do it via an instant message, and you get one chance. The answer will be immediately obvious to the individual who knows FACTS+. Immediately obvious. My service dog Coogee and I fully expect those 5 separate 'thank you' $500 gifts to disappear quickly, that's for sure!

FACTS+    Functional Paranoia: Please check even my software with an anti-virus program of your choice after downloading. I'll feel better as you feel good.

FACTS+ Donate to the Wounded Warriors Project (supportWWP.org) or to a nearby animal shelter, please: I have been so uplifted on several occasions by individuals kind enough to take the time to send along kind emails and personal checks supporting FACTS+.
        Such unexpected thoughtfulness is heartwarming and has brightened many a percocet-laced day.
        Suggestion: Please do keep the kind email notes coming. Each truly is greatly appreciated. However, if you would donate any check to the WWP or to a "no-kill" animal shelter or animal rescue center in your area .... well, how great is that, right? Thank you.

FACTS+    YES, my service dog Coogee and I do provide happy "help"shops. Our combined fee is zero, but due to my health I would need to be driven both ways (taxi, car service, grad student), with two nights of very quiet accommodation also provided. I cover all meals and sundries for my high maintennce female rat terrier and low maintenance self. The day's session can last 3 to 5 hours as we cover myriad FACTS+-related topics (including the elderly, pseudo-autism, research design, and on and on), its research foundation, audience Q&A, opinion-sharing -- and Coogee (and service dogs in general).

Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
(from the classic poem by Robert Frost)

snappy

Yes!
There is nothing more difficult to take in hand,
more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success,
than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.
-- Niccolo Machiavelli, The Prince, ch. 6

Yes!

I have made the above forever-free Happy Hedbring Starter FACTS+ Curriculum available to you three toasty ways:
(1) All-at-Once Download
(2) Pick-and-Choose Download
(3) My home health aide mails it to you

Yes!

(1) All-at-Once Download option Download now the entire 280meg Starter FACTS+ Curriculum here: Click here, please (and my service dog means now -- woof!)
      (At 425KB/sec on a high-speed (cable) modem, it will take about 7 -15 minutes to download the FACTSsetup.exe file. If using a dial-up modem, start the download after you're tucked into beddy-bye at night. It'll be done when you wake up bright eyed and bushy-tailed!)
      Happ
y Aler
t: Please read closely (yes, carefully too!) before downloading -- pretty please....
     I use the industry standard (and bloody expensive) software InstallShield, the best installer on the planet. I've done my job. So please, you must do yours and c-h-i-l-l while the best curriculum software (yes, on the planet or you earn $$$) for the learning handicapped installs itself on your eager computer!
     1. StarterFACTS+ is around 280megs big! That's a whole lot of content! -- a highly organized curriculum of practical information to install. Thus...
     2. Please, you must be patient during installation. StarterFACTS+ will take longer than probably any other software you have ever downloaded and installed. Now that is no big deal -- as long as you exercise some patience and allow the installation process to do its thing. If your computer has a light that flashes while the hard disk is working, the flashing alone will tell you good stuff is happenin'!
     3. If you are installing on a computer using Windows Vista or Windows 7 (rather than WindowsXP), then
      you m-u-s-t right-click on the "FACTSsetup.exe" file and select "Run as Administrator" install. That simple. Now this little twist will not tax anyone with an IQ of 3 digits (or more!), but just wanted to point it out.
     If you do forget to right-click (whew!), at some point you'll have to re-start the installation process (if you are running Vista or Win7).

(2) Pick-and-Choose Download option Download only the individual instructional modules you select from the Happy Starter FACTS+ Curriculum Homeroom pictured below.

If you select this pick-and-choose option, you must install the Homeroom shell first. (Don't forget!)

So, if pick-and-choose is your pleasure Click Here, please. This will download the necessary Happy FACTS+ Homeroom shell.

snappy

Yes! FACTS+ Yes!

Detailed FEATURES list
snappy

Either way, you be the first ecstatically satisfied FACTS+ user(!) to find anything better and earn yourself a cool $2,500 or more (see no-nonsense written promise on main screen of software, or download the standalone complete, ordered statement from the pull-down standalone menu above. Oh yeah, you can win b-i-g.).

Caveat: The $2,500 and the many other $$$-offers are contingent upon a huge IF -- if I do not sell the rights to FACTS+. IF I am still alive and kickin', since I have a severe C5/C6 neck-level spinal cord injury which, at age 66 and after 12 years of deterioration and ever increasing 24/7 pain, joint stiffness, and a series of those debilitating TIA mini-strokes.... sooooo, amid the daily cocktails of Cymbalta, Percocet, Topamax, Norvasc, tons of fluids and tightly monitored diet to minimize pain and threat of stroke.... well, all bets are thus off how long I'll be on the proverbial up-side of the flower garden! Tarry not, so sayeth my vigilant service dog, Coogee. Tarry not.

Too little time. No games, no nonsense, no excuses, no fooling. Too little time.

$Note$ -- These days it seems commonplace for many failure-prone educators to condemn the materials they are "forced" to used in the classroom. Yet, as the four-section grid above tries to illuminate, even low skilled, low motivated teachers (and administrators, parents, grad students, et al for that matter) --even for them there is hope, ample room for ample hope for countering the incessant whining of "denying doers" ("I am not complaining...I am just trying to....").
                Here is my challenge: Specifically, here is your chance to put up or zip up. As stated often in writing in FACTS+, if you are the first...


1. After installation, if you find any spelling errors, errors in grammar, errors that crash the program (errors I can replicate), major research references you email me which I agree should be included in the software .... well, there are many paths you can explore to earn hundreds of dollars, as long as your findings refer to the most recent FACTS+ version posted on this website. (Also, see Features list below.)

2. After installation, if you find any article or book or softs ware better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on Autism, I will send you $500.

3. After installation, if you find any article or book or software better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on the STARS Data Recording/Graphing, I will send you $500.

4. After installation, if you find any article or book or software better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on the Elderly/Catastrophic Injury, I will send you $500.

5. After installation, if you find any article or book or software better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on Service Dogs & the Handicapped, I will send you $500.

6. After installation, if you find any article or book or software better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on the Segway as a Rehab Aid, I will send you $500.

7. After installation, if you find any way I can specifically (detail critical) and significantly improve the software portion of the Piaget module, I will send you $500.

8. After following the separate link below and after installation, if you are the first to find any pre-2007 non-commercially yet readily available software better than the most recent FACTS+ Module on age-old Visual Discrimination, I will send you $1,000. Visual Discrim has been around a long long time; it enjoys an enviable research legacy Sidman, Stoddard, Gibson, and on and on.
     Surely, many a Masters and Doc candidate out there can find software that improves on the efforts of a 65 year old half-dead man with a severe spinal cord injury who spends a lot of time on his X2 off-road Segway or in his 1971 Fiat 500L or 1973 VW Thing ducking yet another mini-stroke "brain attack" (we have "spotted" 5 so far). So yes, that is correct: $1,000. Get 'er done! My nonpareil rat terrier service dog expects as much -- Woof!

9. After following the separate link below and after installation, if you are the first to find any pre-2007 non-commercially yet readily available software better than FACTS+ Module Information Mate, I will indeed send you $100.
        Yes, you may well find one as simple yet as practical as my contribution, but I doubt it. Just remember that my reminder-aide is geared to those with age-related, injury-related, and low functioning related learning handicaps. So please keep my simple-yet-practical criterion foremost in mind when accepting my happy challenge. Thank you.

10. Regarding Dr Hedbring's FACTS+ Curriculum LegacyRefs
: Only the most often quoted, the most often referenced, must-know references are cited -- yes, as classics, legacy research articles from years (decades!) past that set the stage, paved the way, and forged the thousands upon thousands of dissertation theses and research grants to which every single college professor owes his/her livelihood and reputaton today.
        The forever f
ree database presently includes just over 9,000 references. Collected over some 35 years (and still counting), the list can be searched, added to, annotated, copied/ pasted, and simply -- yes -- enjoyed. You can edit the list any way you wish to meet your fancy. And guess what: It's yours,
forever free!
        And what's more: LOL, you guessed it. You be the first to find anything better and earn $1,000. (I didn't put in all this effort to give away hard-earned farthings easily, you know.)

snappy

On behalf of all highly motivated, hard working educators on the front lines of instruction, we challenge naysayers to put up (and make some money!) or zip it.
        Now, as I take pains to spell out clearly in FACTS+, my opinion defines and determines "better." If your product submission is more content-intensive, more practical, better organized, more clearly presented than my most recent website post -- and first -- you duly earn the award.
        Please ensure that your entry is readily available on-line or via mail, was published before 2007, and also understand that the lower the price, the better. Submit your product to my mailing address: 206 Pyramid Pines, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.
        True, my give-back to you is admittedly peanuts compared to your bills. However, it is my feeble attempt to both thank and reward those motivated enough these Ipod days to break away, supererogate (yeah!), and dare to excel.
        Heck, I might even send along a check to whomever puts forth one heck of a thoroughly documented, empirical effort yet comes up a bit short or second. Effort counts .... and by the way, Mike from Queensbury, NY and Susan S. from near Des Moines, Iowa have already walked the walk and earned nearly $1,200 and Mike also earned a computer as well (given a burly bug he uncovered, much to my chagrin!).


        If you submit a product along with an analysis and I fail to respond, I probably was totally unimpressed by the meager effort involved. Otherwise, I will respond to all entries: No games, no nonsense, no excuses, no fooling. Too little time on my end.

(3) Home health aid sends FACTS+ to you

For $30 she will send the entire 280meg downloadable FACTS+ install file to you on a top-quality USB flash 'thumb' drive.


Also included on your happy flash drive are free copies (which most of the authors hope you will upgrade) of great software I love, endorse (wish they knew and would pay me, boo-hoo!) and have used for many years:

snappyDocpad WP

snappyIrfanview

snappyAVG antivirus

snappySpybot Search & Destroy

snappyZoneAlarm Home Edition

snappyCcleaner

snappyUltra-Pad

snappyxplorer2Lite
All these extra goodies included on the thumb drive you receive with FACTS+ really are outstanding which no serious computer user should be without. Period.

Your responsibility, however, is to do the following sans error:
1. Write a check, MO, bank check to Charles Hedbring for $30 (or more, yeah!).
2. Buy a small padded brown envelope.
3. Self-address the toasty brown envelope to where you want the FACTS+ flash drive sent when my Home Health Aide pops it in the mail.
4. Put sufficient stampage on that small, padded, brown envelope.
5. Put the the $30 check into the stamped envelope.
6. Buy a slightly larger envelope and add proper postage.
7. Address the larger, stamped ready-to-mail envelope packet to:

Dr Charles Hedbring
206 Pyramid Pines
Saratoga Springs, NY 12866

     If you do it correctly -- it really is pretty logical! -- my Home Health Aide will have your packet in the mail as soon as your check clears. If you include a cashier's check, bank check, money order for the $30, we'll have your packet in the mail within one day or less. (The $30 covers the drive and my Aide's time.)
     If you mess it up, you'll end up $30 short and no packet. My health and my prognosis no longer allow for patching up needless errors, unless I am responsible.

     Please read Hedbring, C. (1985). Computers and autistic learners: An evolving technology. Australian Journal of Human Communication Disorders, 13, 169-194.
     Also, yet again please enjoy the plaque below.

*Alas! You don't believe FACTS+ also focuses on the IEP, or the gifted, or a wide variety of cognitive functions? OK ....

     Please read Hedbring, C. (2005). Autochthonous change: Self-renewal through open software design. The Behavior Analyst Today, 6(1), 13-26.

*Uh oh! You don't believe FACTS+ has been demonstrated in presentations and workshops across the country, in Sweden, Britain, New Zealand, and across Australia?
      Oops, you might win that one. I do have a publication that grew out of a conference where I presented in Perth, Australia and another presentation in Christchurch, New Zealand. When I find the Perth reference, I'll update this section. Otherwise, I can't document this last assertion. Oh well....
                snappy

Remember: I will eagerly & immediately send $2,500 to the first user of StarterFACTS+ who I agree has found any better 'autism SOFTWARE curriculum'. The curriculum must be readily available, must be copyrighted 2007 or earlier, and must run with few flaws. No nonsense. No excuses. No fooling.

So again, please keep in mind that the Starter FACTS+ Curriculum offers many opportunities for the motivated and the wise to earn a lot of money.
