In order for academic progress to take place, it is important for all teachers to select instructional methods and accommodations that address the varied needs represented in the classroom. The present phenomenological inquiry study explored the effect of a noise-reducing test accommodation on a reading comprehension assessment for 24 elementary students with and without disabilities. Eighteen classrooms in a total of two elementary schools in South Carolina were chosen to participate in this study and a purposive student sample (n = 24) was selected for interviews. Six themes emerged from the data: (a) increased reading comprehension, (b) reduced distractions, (c) increased comprehension, (d) a sense of calmness, (e) personal enjoyment, and (f) a different feeling. The results indicated that students who used noise reducing headphones, while taking a reading comprehension test, experienced a mutual appreciation and shared positive thoughts regarding reduced distractions and increased concentration. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
