出勤/作业的灵活性
If a student has a condition with random or cyclical acute episodes that may occasionally impact the student’s ability to attend class or complete exams or assignments at the scheduled time, flexibility in attendance and assignments may be considered an appropriate accommodation. 学生 who believe they cannot adhere to an attendance policy because of circumstances directly related to a disability may seek an accommodation. 就像所有的住宿一样, the process for students to initiate a request for attendance accommodations is through the 无障碍教育办公室.

出勤/作业的灵活性意味着什么?
学生 who may occasionally miss class or an assignment deadline or exam due to random or cyclical acute episodes caused by a disability may seek an accommodation. Flexibility in attendance/assignments is not applied to every week, every assignment, or every exam. An approved agreement between the student and faculty should help clarify expectations should an unexpected flare-up occur during the term.
The 无障碍教育办公室 may contact faculty regarding the accommodation to gain an understanding in the role attendance plays in the design of the course, as well as a basic understanding of the impact or role timing of assignments and exams play in the interactive or participatory nature of the course.
具体来说,无障碍教育办公室将探讨:
- 课程出勤政策是什么? 课程描述和教学大纲是怎么说的?
- 用什么方法计算期末成绩? (出勤、作业、考试等.)
- Are the attendance policy and late work or missed exams policy applied consistently? 在情有可原的情况下,保险单是否有例外, 比如运动旅行或宗教观察?
- How much interaction is there between the instructor and students and among students’ peers?
- Do student contributions constitute a significant component of the learning process?
- Does the design of the course rely on student participation as a significant method for learning (either in attendance and/or their assignment (project) contributions?
- 是否有只在课堂上提供的内容?
- Is attendance via Skype (or alternative method) a possibility during a flare-up, 如果是这样的话, 占班会的百分比是多少?
- To what degree does a student’s failure to attend class or complete an assignment on time compromise the educational experience of other students in the class?
If the 出勤/作业的灵活性 accommodation is determined to be reasonable, the 无障碍教育办公室 will work with faculty and students to clearly specify:
- 学生应该如何以及何时通知教师他们将缺课.
- 学生将如何补交错过的作业和/或考试.
- The number of absences (beyond what any student is allowed) that would be reasonable.
- If it is reasonable for online discussion expectations to be modified due to disability-related reasons and under what conditions.
- If it is reasonable to extend the window for completing online exams or assignments.
- Whether a drop, withdraw or incomplete may be appropriate based on the student’s situation.
The parameters of this accommodation need to be worked out on an individual basis between the professor and student, 根据课程的结构和要求. This accommodation depends upon a partnership between the student and professor though the 无障碍教育办公室 will assist in facilitating or advising throughout this process.
重要的信息
- This accommodation is not a blanket reason to miss class or miss assignment due dates.
- This accommodation is not reasonable if the number of accommodated absences becomes excessive. 教师不应放弃课程的重要学术组成部分.
- Some students register late in the term or wait to request this accommodation until late in the term. 在这种情况下,教职员工不应提供追溯性住宿. However, it may still be helpful to have this information, even at a late point in the term.
- At no time is the student required to present the faculty member with medical documentation verifying his/her disability-related absence for this accommodation.
- Absences that are not related to the effects of a disability are not included in this accommodation (i.e. 因常见疾病、繁忙日程、工作安排等原因缺席.) and should be addressed according to the stated syllabus attendance/absence policy. The student is responsible for following the faculty member’s syllabus regarding absences due to non-disability related issues.
- An accommodation in attendance is not reasonable if regular attendance is essential element/component to the course and/or curriculum.
- Faculty are not obligated to re-teach material missed due to a student not attending class.
- 并非每个课程组件都可以提供扩展.
- 学生 have the responsibility for completing all class work and should be held to the same standard as all other students.
