Making AccessAbility adjustments in LearnJCU
There are three types of changes you can make to a student’s assessment conditions:
- Accommodations
- Exceptions
- Exemptions
Exemptions are not currently used by AccessAbility, so won’t be covered here.
- Change applies to a student throughout the subject
- Timer and Due date changes can be applied to assessments, tests, discussion boards, and journals
- Commonly used to adjust the time a student has to complete a timed test or exam.
Example percentage adjustments for timed assessments
Additional time required | Additional time as a percentage of an hour (rounded up to a whole number as recommended by AccessAbility) |
---|---|
5 minutes per hour | 9% |
10 minutes per hour | 17% |
15 minutes per hour | 25% |
20 minutes per hour | 34% |
25 minutes per hour | 42% |
30 minutes per hour | 50% |
Exceptions
- Change applies to the individual student only for a particular assessment
- Can be applied to assessments and tests
- Cannot be applied to graded discussion boards or journals
Changes to due date settings can have additional considerations to assessments using specific settings:
- Tests using Prohibit late submissions or Prohibit new attempts after due date will have those settings overridden by a due date exception or accommodation for that student.
- Anonymous grading – submission may not be anonymous if submitted after marks posted for other students
- Peer review assessment – this process requires students to respond to each other’s submission. One student submitting later can affect other student’s ability to complete the task or receive feedback.
