Looking SpaceFox’s question for people who have been in special ed, it seems pretty like its a pretty negative experience. So, I’d like to know what Lemmy users have seen work well for people who need extra help in school? What haven’t you seen but think would be helpful?
Not so much special education, more special exam conditions.
I have ADHD and dysgraphia (chronically bad at handwriting). For exams I was allowed to opt into using a computer to write for my exams in high school. All of the special exam students were in a separate room from most of the students, and it was disconnected from the internet and there was a teacher watching us much more closely than the main group.
This was really good for me, and I would have done much worse if it wasn’t for this. Sure, I didn’t use it for every exam, since typing maths is slow and painful, but for the essay exams it was great.
