A good resource for print tests, it includes asking about providing alternative formats for people who are blind or have learning disabilities. It's been a long time since I took a test that wasn't conducted online or over the internet. It would be good to have some guidelines around online tests.

This is a good resource for printed, in person tests. Most of the tests students are taking right now are online, so this could be improved by adding online resources and guidelines as well.

Overall, I thought the test AUDIT is a great resource. I like how the test items AUDIT manual spreadsheet help evaluate how accessibility a test is. I think that is a good tool to have in place because it builds inclusivity and allows everyone to participate without feeling isolated.

This test AUDIT is a great resource for professors who are teaching in-person and require their tests to be taken in-person as well. This resources does not have much info regarding online classes and tests, which are trending in higher education. It would still be good for professors to take a look at this resource to reflect on other aspects of their class as well.

This was a good audit overall. I do think, however, there need to be some consideration for accessibility services or testing centers. Some of the items can be graded lower if given alone, however, if intended for a testing center, it may grade a little higher. Just my 2 cents.

Great resource for more in person focused classes rather than online

Since most of my courses are online, a good format like this would be beneficial for online instruction.

Majority of my classes are online, with the exception of one but I think that this format is great for online and in person.
