Accessible Education Services (AES) offers the following faculty tips to support students in preparing for final exams:
- Make multiple announcements of the date and time of your final exam and ask that students who need final exam accommodations contact you directly by a specific date (i.e this Friday, April 22, for example).
- Send individual e-mail reminders to students with exam accommodations to remind the student to contact you by a specific date to confirm final exam accommodation arrangements.
- Ask the student to confirm which specific exam accommodations are needed for the final exam (such as extra time, alternative setting, etc.). Note: Students who utilize AES accommodations such as use of a scribe, use of a reader, or use of text-to-speech or speech-to-text software may be referred to AES for proctoring.
- Find a location for the exam in advance. To reserve or locate possible exam space, faculty should contact their school or college dean’s office.
