Assignments typically can have accommodations applied! However when assignments are in class and are done in a group, these 'assignments' are basically like labs.<\/p>\n\n
What are some considerations when thinking about accommodations for assignments?<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
In class or take-home assignment\n\t
\n\t\t
In-class assignments usually need to be completed by the end of a class! Take home assignments will have a set due date.<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
Group or independent assignment.\n\t
\n\t\t
Group assignments usually cannot have additional time applied unless you discuss with your group and your instructor. Prioritize completing group work or work with your group to meet the deadlines!<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
Is there already some flexibility in the course?\n\t
\n\t\t
Courses may already provide extra time or \"grace periods\" to submit work. These are considered accommodations!<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
Will answers be released for this assignment?\n\t

You can't submit work that has answers released.<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},"library":"H5P.Text 1.1","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"},"subContentId":"37181608-3eed-424a-9a99-b509e0d5009c"}],"header":"In-class group assignments."},{"position":{"x":8.403125,"y":45.27937756456306},"alwaysFullscreen":false,"content":[{"params":{"text":"
When you think of an assessment, you probably think about a test!<\/p>\n\n
Tests have a lot of potential interactions with an accommodation plan:<\/p>\n\n
1. Do you need to write an accommodated test?<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
Book your test with SAS tests on MySASportal!<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
2. What if you miss a test?<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
25% and over tests cannot be MSAFed using an MSAF type A! You'd need documentation to miss this test which will be reviewed by your faculty.<\/li>\n\t
If it's a disability related absence, you might have a re-weigh or a re-write date. Both are kinds of accommodation outcomes for alternative for occasional missed tests<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\t
If assessments are \"cumulative\" it is likely to be a re-weigh.<\/li>\n\t
If assessments are \"non-cumulative\" it is unlikely to be a re-weigh of the grade. This is because the content you missed won't be graded anywhere else in the course!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
3. What if you miss a final exam?<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
You must submit a \u2018petition for special consideration \u2013 exam deferral\u2019.\n\t
