=Can He Take a Test?= Presented by Jo Meyer from Soft Touch, Inc. Posted by Missy Jansen melissa.jansen@sendit.nodak.edu

Tests need to be prepared correctly for the student taking the test. For students with limited access and/or skills there are several things that the teacher giving the test needs to look at.
 * 1) **Know What the Student Responds To:** people, pictures, objects, photos, line drawing, music, movement, etc.
 * 2) **Identify Computer Access Skills:** mouse, single switch, 2 switch, touch, Intellikeys®
 * 3) **Individual Presentation Style:**
 * __Vision__ - plane of vision; size of image and/or text
 * __Sound -__ funny, verbal, music, sound effects, synthesized voice, real voice
 * __Seating__ - consult with OT/PT with concerns

__//**Always teach the structure of the computer based test with familiar things first without new concepts, so that you begin testing the new concepts you know you are testing the concepts and not the way it is presented!!!**//__
