Learners with disability

It's not a good idea to guess if a student has a disability or not. Accommodations, undocumented learning issue, are addressed in career tracked programs that have services to assist students in these areas. As instructors we are not trained to correctly identify the specifics of a disability or acurartely gage the level of the disability or how it should be met.

At our campus, we address these issues on a private level with the student on the first day of class. And we allow the students a week to submit any proper paperwork if necessary.

You can speak with the student and be very general and ask if there is anything that they want to share that would bhelp them learn the material better.
