摘要：Assessment and the need to record academic achievement are an integral part of the higher education experience for all students. For disabled students it is essential that they are assessed in such a way so as not to disadvantage them, and equally, in a way that does not give them an advantage over other students. This paper highlights some of the issues that academic staff should consider and indicates the resources that are available to help them. This paper looks at the planning of assessment, physical environments in which assessments take place, alternative formats and timings and discusses how technology can be both an opportunity and a barrier for students to participate in assessments.
