Which accommodation is described for mobility impairments?

• A. Require raising hands for responses
• B. Alternate methods like a scribe to take notes
• C. Prohibit late arrivals
• D. Ignore personal space considerations

Answer: (B)

Accommodations for mobility impairments focus on adjusting participation and access so the person can engage fully, such as providing note-taking assistance. A scribe to take notes directly supports someone who cannot write quickly or comfortably due to mobility challenges, fatigue, or the need to focus on listening and understanding. By having information recorded by someone else, the individual can access the same material as others and participate meaningfully without being hindered by handwriting or typing demands.

Other options don’t fit as well. Requiring raising hands for responses creates a physical barrier for someone with limited mobility, rather than removing one. Policies like prohibiting late arrivals don’t address mobility needs. Ignoring personal space considerations is not an accommodation at all and can be inappropriate or disrespectful.
