BehaveWise

BehaveWise helps school teams move from “this behavior is a problem” toward a clearer understanding of what they’re seeing, how to measure it, and what they can do next. Built for educators and school-based professionals, BehaveWise brings behavior definitions, observation-method guidance, structured data collection, practical strategies, and clear reports together in one place — supporting informed decisions without replacing professional judgment. Start with a definition, not a label. “Off-task” and “aggressive” are starting points, not operational definitions. BehaveWise helps teams define behavior in specific, observable terms and consider the context surrounding it — including task difficulty, communication demands, sensory and environmental factors, skill gaps, peer interactions, and adult responses. Choose the right way to observe. Not every behavior should be measured the same way. BehaveWise helps teams select an appropriate observation method and includes nine behavior-recording tools: frequency, duration, latency, momentary time sampling, partial- and whole-interval recording, opportunity-based recording, ABC recording, and scatterplot data. Move from information to action. Observation is only part of the process. BehaveWise includes a practical, evidence-informed Strategy Library designed to help school teams consider supportive approaches based on the behavior and context they are seeing. What’s inside: • A searchable Behavior Library with observable definitions and measurement guidance • Guidance for selecting an appropriate observation method • Nine structured behavior-recording tools designed for practical use in school settings • A Strategy Library with evidence-informed ideas organized by behavior and context • Automatic graphs and session summaries generated from recorded data • Exportable, printable reports and blank forms • Anonymous case labels by design — no student names required, no login, and no account • On-device storage for cases, observations, and reports What BehaveWise is not. BehaveWise does not diagnose ADHD, autism, emotional disability, oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety, or any other medical, psychological, or educational condition. It does not determine why a behavior is occurring. Patterns identified through the app are starting points for professional discussion, not conclusions. BehaveWise supports structured observation, thoughtful problem-solving, and strategy planning; it does not replace a formal evaluation, Functional Behavioral Assessment, or the judgment of qualified professionals. Built by an educator, for educators. BehaveWise is a Wayli Co product designed around the realities of school-based work: limited time, complex student needs, and the need for practical information that helps teams make thoughtful, informed decisions.
