  Case: Broken Arm
Ms. Sally has a student who has come to class with a broken arm on the day of their unit test. Because the arm that the student has broken is also the hand that he uses to write, it will be impossible for him to write his answers on his test. The grades for the unit test must be submitted that day, so there is no possibility for him to make the test up on another day. Ms. Sally can not use class time to personally administer the test to this student because must monitor the rest of the class while they take their test. What is Ms. Sally to do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The teacher could have the student take the test electronically so that the student could use the other hand to type or select his answers. This way the teacher could still monitor the other students testing.
