This poster shares a case of reasonable accommodation for a student with dyslexia on a standardized English proficiency test to discuss some problems and solutions. The student took the test using some technologies such as a tablet PC with screen reader software and noise-canceling headphones. Although this accommodation enabled measurement of her real ability in listening and reading, there were still serious problems that other English tests can also include.
