[nabs-l] when technology interferes with testing

[Josh Gregory]

I have not, and please do not think me rude  when I say this, but I think it would be more efficient if used on a laptop. Some sites are not very  efficient on mobile devices such as iPhones and especially when technologies  such as voiceover our used..

My teacher is very technology-oriented and he has us use a site called word-champ to do drills and take tests.  I find that word-champ is not always very efficient to use with VoiceOver.  For one, some of the words are cut off, and also there are often problems with the cursor jumping around a lot.  On my last test I scored very poorly and several of my mistakes were due to problems with the site (it cut off some parts of the exam and it wasn't always clear where to write the answer.) My teacher doesn't seem to understand the seriousness of this situation.  My dad has seen me do drills before and saw my last test, and understands these problems.  We are having a meeting about it with the teacher on Thursday.
