  Case: How to Assess a Non-Verbal Student
I am in a high school ESE classroom right now for my internship. How do I assess a student who is non-verbal, in a wheelchair, and struggles with their fine motor skills?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This really depends on the students cognitive abilities. Non-verbal students can learn sign language. There is always eye gaze based on the pictures provided. You can also use Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). This would include devices such as speech tablet. There are devices such as BIGmack and step by step communication device. These are push to talk devices.
