SECTION 1: ASSESSMENT

ASSESSMENT

A brief description of the original assessment you have already used:

The original assessment was a traditional written test comprising multiple-choice questions, short answers, and a section for a long essay. This test was designed to assess students' comprehension of key historical events regarding the evolution of germ theory covered in our science unit.

A description of the revised assessment that includes three or more adaptations for students with special needs:

The revised assessment includes several key adaptations to accommodate students with special needs:

1. Multiple Formats for Answer Submission: Students can choose to submit answers in written form, audio recordings, or video presentations. This allows students with dyslexia or other reading difficulties to express their understanding without being hindered by their challenges with writing.

2. Extended Time: Providing additional time for students who require it, ensuring they have ample opportunity to complete the test without the pressure of a tight deadline which is crucial for those with processing delays.

3. Question Simplification: Rewording complex questions into simpler, clearer language for students who struggle with language processing disorders. This ensures the assessment measures their knowledge of the content, not their ability to decipher complicated question structures.

Your rationale for the changes you made to the assessment (i.e., why students with special needs will benefit from the supports you describe?):

These changes are designed to level the playing field for students with special needs by reducing the barriers they face in traditional assessment formats. The adaptations allow students to demonstrate their understanding of the course material in a manner that best suits their individual learning profiles. By diversifying the ways students can respond, we're not only accommodating their needs but also encouraging their strengths to shine through.

Communicating Results After the Test: Providing detailed feedback in one-on-one sessions, where the focus will be on discussing the progress and areas for improvement. Ensuring the feedback...
