Mobility and Dexterity

  • Restructure laboratory experiences to include the use of a partner for students with hand and arm dexterity problems. The partner can perform the active parts of the assignment at the direction of the disabled student.
  • Work with students to arrange for appropriate time for completion of class assignments.
  • Allow adequate time for testing.
  • Be realistic in seeking solutions when a student is late to class. Although inclement weather, circuitous routes, elevator problems and crowds are contributing causes, chronic lateness is not acceptable and needs to be discussed with the student.
  • Allow for adequate break time during class if the class meets for an extended period so that the student can attend to such physical needs as stretching, medication, and rest room use.
