Assessment Strategies for Students with Asperger's Syndrome

 

 

[Print-friendly version]

It may be necessary to devise alternatives to group assessments.

Students may benefit from the opportunity to look at the instructions and structure of examination papers before the exam so that confusions can be cleared up and anxiety diminished.

The language and rubric of examination papers need to be both explicit and literal. For some students, multiple choice papers can be particularly confusing, and alternatives may be appropriate.

When providing feedback be very clear about what is inappropriate or appreciated and why.
