Tape-recording answers is dangerous.
Firstly, the pronunciation part.
I can furnish numerous examples in Hindi, where different people
pronounce
the same word differently due to regional considerations.
Secondly, when we record an answer, little time is left for the process
of
thinking. Either you pause the recording frequently, or you have to speak
flawlessly and continuously.
During the recording, a shrill horn from a nearby vehicle may disturb the
recording and the checker may not get the recording correctly.
Many more such disturbances may occur resulting in a bad recording.

Subject: Re: [AI] Blind can record answers
What if the tape-recorder malfunctions? In 2002, my typewriter didn't
work when I went to DU to appear for the exams for the post of typist.
Multiple options may be given to the blind for writing exams. At the
same
time, teachers should prepare the students to the extent of securing good
marks on their own without expecting the scribes to compensate for the
poor preparation and/or negligence of the students.

what about math? tell it like a Poem?
typing would be fair instead of recording.
the Sighted write so we should type!
that way teachers can deduct marks for spelling mistakes and so on in
case of English Language.
for this, students should be introduced to assistive technology early
on, which may take time, but not impossible.
liberal evaluation/ grace marks as mentioned in the article is given
to all special Students.
which would make the blind incompetent if practiced.
I agree that these initiatives maybe desirable for learning and
complex disabilities!
many of the policies that come up are not well thought off in advance.
I feel the government should consult the disabled first, as these
policies are used by us and not those who make the policy.

then, our recorded answers should be crisp and clear to attract
listeners who put marks. if we tell answers slowly or if we want to
change what we said, deleting old recording and inserting new will be
tedius and time consuming.
i prefer typing through screen readers else writers should continue.

One step towards independent exam system. But I believe it would be
good to provide options like use of computer or recording.
Sensitising examination authorities would also be needed to avoid
bitter experience.
I see it may be a bit challenge for teachers during correction as
accent may vary.

Times of India:
Blind students can 'record' board exam answers on tape recorder
Abhishek Choudhari
| TNN | Jan 9, 2016, 04.24 PM IST
NAGPUR: Don't be surprised if during this summer's state board exam
a candidate asks the invigilator for additional 'cassette' instead
of additional supplement.
Students suffering from visual impairment (partial/full) can now
record their answers on tape recorder rather than taking help of a
writer. This new rule is part of a slew of revolutionary changes
brought in for special needs students by state school education
minister Vinod Tawde.
Speaking to TOI, Tawde said, "Visually impaired students can get
the questions read to them 20 minutes before the paper starts so
that they can get a feel of things. Their answers will be recorded
and the device will be sent for evaluation in the same way we send
the traditional answer sheets." For all special needs students the
minister has offered other exam concessions, like 20 minutes extra
time per exam hour, liberal evaluation, grace marks, facility of
talking calculator, on-screen reading software (if available) etc.
Students suffering from cerebral palsy, autism, impairment of
speech and hearing, physical disability, spastics, learning
disorder etc are some who have been given these examination
concessions. Parents who have children with special needs have been
advised to get in touch with their schools and local board office
for details.
