NYSTCE: Students with Disabilities Exam Prep

Category - Understanding and Evaluating

Some classroom teachers feel that adaptations and assistive technology teach a student to be lazy. How can special education specialists ensure that a teacher complies with the needed accommodation?
  1. Threaten the teacher with a lawsuit if she fails to comply.
  2. Use very specific language within the IEP to indicate any required assistive technologies or adaptations.
  3. Educate the teacher through discussions on the benefits of assistive technology.
  4. Ask the student to contact you if the teacher does not comply.
Explanation
Answer: B-To ensure teacher compliance, use very specific language within the IEP to indicate any required assistive technologies or adaptations. Attempts to educate teachers through discussions are useful, but not all teachers are receptive. Clear language in the IEP is the best guarantee of compliance.
