Accessible Assessments
Alternative Accommodations
Sometimes, students with disabilities prefer or require a human reader or other non-digital accommodations.
NCAM's pioneering research and development efforts and years of practical experience began with captioning and video description (also called audio description), then expanded to include access to all forms of digital media, and continues today with a range of services which support access to today's high-stakes assessments for students with disabilities.
- NCAM can create, review, or revise guidelines and practices for alternate methods of access to assessments.
