---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ayala Rivlin <ayalateach@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: online exams for students with accomodations Last year an experiment was conducted , in which LD students with accommodations could take on online test. It means the FULL test is read to the students and he/she has to type their answers OR record them onto the computer.The Ulpana in Modiin participated in the experiment and our conclusion is that this method is ideal for Hakraat sheelon students and those who can't write their answers . It doesn't work with students who need to take their test orally for various reasons. It is also only suitable for students who are computer literate, because some LD students found it intimidating.
