Abby Hart, The University of Texas at Arlington Felicia Wabara, The University of Texas at Arlington Hayden Roney, The University of Texas at Arlington Preparing for and administering exams with accommodations can be challenging in a perfect testing world. How has accommodated testing changed for students and staff in a post COVID world? While some students can test on campus and give the opportunity to collaborate with a university’s academic disabilities office, others must test virtually and both circumstances present unique challenges and requirements in all stages of testing. We will explore the challenges of working with Examity to incorporate accessibility computer programs into virtual TSI testing as well as preparing for use of Braille test booklets, readers, scribes, and other visual impairment testing aids for in-person TSI tests in pre, during, and post-test conditions. The presentation will conclude with what we believe to be best practice and answering questions from the audience.

Arrayon Farlough-Rollins, Conference Chair 2020 WebinarsTesting at a Post-Secondary Institution During a Pandemic Presenter: Dr. Cindy James, Thompson River University The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on testing services in higher education. In most cases, testing centers have closed and/or transitioned to virtual services. Eventually testing centers will reopen, but how will testing services be provided during a pandemic? This presentation is designed to answer that question based on experience. Specifically, the Thompson Rivers University (TRU) Assessment Centre resumed limited testing services at the beginning of May. To reopen, the Centre had to revamp its procedures in order to adhere to social distancing and other pandemic protocols. During this webinar, an overview of these changes and their impact on testing will be presented.
