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.
