Lynn, Heath,Renate, are there answers the Renate's question in your office for Resources for People with Disabilities? (OR whatever anagram exists locally?). I'm thinking peripherally, but I think this conversation needs to be bigger. In my experience at my last institution, RCPD's had little understanding of how to program for instances like this. IT's been a long-standing hope of mine that Centers work more closely with those offices. KMJ Kevin M.

This has worked fairly well so far. Heath Marrs, Ed.D. Assistant Professor Department of Psychology Central Washington University 400 E.

In the past I had students with documented learning disabilities who were allowed 1.5 times the allotted time for exams and quizzes. Any suggestions how to handle that situation. It is the first time that I am using TBL this fall and just want to be ready if the situation comes up.
