I especially like the idea of increasing the amount of time to
take an exam or quiz. Students with ADHD are much more likely to be
negatively affected by the thought of a time limit for completing
something they know is going to be graded. Allowing for them to
take the test over a longer period of time and minimizing any sort
of pressure to finish would, in my opinion, drastically improve a
student's score. On the other hand, there needs to be some type of
structure and limit on the amount of time a student is allowed. I
have had students that would work on a test over a period of a
week, but in small chunks at a time. That seemed to be a good
baseline.
