Temporary Accommodations

When a student needs temporary accommodations (typically during a healing period after an injury or surgery), we encourage the student to speak directly with you, the instructor. That way you can both explore ideas and actions that will help the student access your class, depending on the temporary condition or limitation.

Some ideas and actions you might discuss include:

• Arrange for a fellow classmate to share class notes with the student.
• Provide extra time for the student to complete projects and assignments.
• Encourage the student to tape record your lecture.
• Permit the student to tape record quiz and test answers. This accommodation might increase the amount of time needed to complete the exam.
• Provide the student with an oral quiz or exam.

If you have any questions about appropriate temporary accommodations, please contact Disability Services at ext. 5150.
