The technique of using the hacki sack ball in business meetingws and deaf classrooms is one that has been used effectively for many years.
Yes, it was used in one of my college classes. I went to a HEARING college BTW. It's a VERY simple low tech solution, that could be just as good as CART.

If a child has the potential and ability to be an A plus student, then the IEP should be geared towards that.
But the IEP is not supposed to be used that way. You are arguing that Jackie's daughter is being kept back from acheiving b/c she misses stuff in the classroom. You're saying that she's essentailly being kept at average functioning...but if she was just an average student she would just be getting C's. Instead she is getting Bs and As!
