| Abstract | Because of the mandates found in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act that specifically focus on assessment, most states have developed a set of policies that focus on the types of accommodations that can be provided to students with disabilities. Students with visual impairments require a unique set of accommodations. Braille and large print have been consistently found to be among the two most often identified specific accommodations that are allowed. However, limited research has reviewed more specific assessment accommodations that may be needed by students with visual impairments, such as the abacus, talking calculators, and scribes. The purpose of this study was to develop a better understanding of the scope of available accommodations that can be provided to students with visual impairments on state-mandated assessments in Grades 3-12 across the United States and of the similarities and differences in the accommodations provided within the states. The research question asked what specific testing accommodations are available for students with visual impairments when taking state-mandated standardized assessments. (Contains 4 tables.) (ERIC). |
