Students with disabilities may meet the requirements of state and district assessment programs in three ways. Identify those three ways and give an example of each
What will be an ideal response?
Answer:
Regular state and district assessments without any modifications.
Example: If the learner's disability does not interfere with test performance, the student can take the regular test with other learners and under the same conditions.
Regular assessments with accommodations (accommodations relating to the way the test is administered, not to the content of the test), to ensure that results are valid indicators of learner achievement, not the disability.
Example: Providing extra time or reading a science test to the learner to compensate for the disability while validly testing the science skills and knowledge.
Specially designed and standardized state alternative assessments. if no part of the general education curriculum is appropriate due to the severity of the students' disabilities
Example: Learners with severe disabilities may take tests specially designed to assess their achievement in the functional curriculum they are receiving (e.g., independent living skills).
