• Inform DAS if memory aid content compromises academic integrity.  If yes, see the FAQ on the previous page for instructions on fundamental alteration and exemptions for allowing a memory aid in your course. 
  • Provide the student with timely feedback to allow the opportunity for revisions if needed. 

  • Submit the memory aid, attached to the exam materials, to DAS Testing Services.  

Additional Ways to Support Your Students: 

  • When you start teaching a new unit, consider announcing to the class and on Canvas the areas that you intend to test. Students with memory aids can create and use their memory aid as a resource throughout the course, rather than just before the test. 

  • For the students who may require memory aids, it helps to confidentially remind them to submit their memory aid to you at least two days before the test, so that you can review it and provide direction in person or by email on the acceptability of the content. 

  • Consider allowing students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills in ways other than traditional tests/exams which, by their design, often constrain students with memory-related disabilities.
