You are interpreting an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) Testing. The student being tested has a good command on sign language but the differences between Jamaican signs and American signs poses additional communication challenges. You explain the communication struggles to the tester. You also suggest strategies for communication.
--Is it ok to suggest communication strategies on an IEP test? Or an IQ test? Does that influence the results?
--how do you tell the test giver you are working on communication?
--do you request a team?
A place to discuss real life ethical dilemmas to better your decision making process as an interpreter.
