The the main purpose of tests are to measure what students do know rather than to identify what they don't know. 

I learned about the various types of assessments that can be used to determine where a student is.

I have learned that the responsibility of identifying a disability is on the student and the family as soon as possible . The accommondation should noy interfer with the curiculum.

I have discovered from this course so far that people with disabilities are just as smart as everyone else it just sometimes takes a little longer to process information according to what else is going on with them phyiscally or mentally

It is very apparent when dealing with unattentive students that both parties should take responsibilty .The teachers should put herself in the students place . Is it interesting or just plain boring ? We have to realize students these days are dealing with so much it takes a little more to engage them. Students should try to come with an open mind to receive information . That is the purpose of school isn't it? 

I have learned that it is very important to break expectations down into smaller sections for students to be able to process and understand. Students appreciate knowing what is expected of them.
