by Benjamin J. Lovett (Author), Lawrence J. Lewandowski (Author)
Deciding whether to grant test accommodations for a student with disabilities can be challenging. Benjamin J. Lovett and Lawrence J. Lewandowski's research-based guidelines offer a scientific approach to deciding when accommodations are appropriate, depending on the student's functional skills, the test being taken, and the accommodations being considered.
Readers will learn how laws and practices differ for K-12, postsecondary, and workplace accommodations. Most important, they will learn to make effective decisions through research-based training in accommodations. Case studies provide a practical view of how the guidelines apply in various scenarios.Author Biography
