Special Provisions

Features that can make all the difference

Learnosity's test platform was built from the ground up in conjunction with the New South Wales Board of Studies. The solution has been designed first and foremost to address the features required by students with special needs. The system, unlike many others, gives the same priority to these special provision features as to general functionality. For this reason we have a broad range of special features that ensures the inclusion of many students across large scale assessments.

Features

• Each special provision can be allocated to one or all students.
• Extra time - administrators can assign more time to some students for a particular exam. 
• Student customisable font and image size - allows students to make writing and pictures bigger on their computer screen without adversely affecting the layout or formatting.
• Pause button - some students benefit from taking a break during the exam so the pause button allows this without disrupting the exam time allowed.
• Customisable interface and content colours - enables students to change the colours of the interface and content to those more suitable for their needs.

Screen reader

For blind users, we offer a screen reader version of Learnosity OnScreen.  This is essentially an accessible html frontend designed specifically for screen reader software such as JAWS.  The screen reader version was originally developed with the NSW Board of Studies in collaboration with Vision Australia and The Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children. The application has been used by blind students in New South Wales, and been comprehensively tested by Vision Australia.
