About the Assessment: Types of AccommodationsStudents assessed with accommodations typically received some combination of accommodations. In contrast to earlier assessment years (prior to 2009) in which students were only counted once in the category reflecting the primary accommodation provided, students were counted in the categories for each accommodation they received in 2011. For example, students assessed in small groups (as compared with standard NAEP sessions of about 30 students) were also usually given extended time and are included in counts for both groups. |
