I have called home several times, he has seen the counselor, he has a BIP, but he still will not take a test seriously. He bubbles in answers or circles them and then lays his head down. No amount of prodding, bribing, encouragement has helped yet. What haven't I tried that might help? How do I motivate him? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) It seems he thinks this type of work is boring, because he has a BIP I would see if he can get some sort of accommodation to take a verbal test allowing him to say what he is thinking. Have you tried giving him tests on the computer?
