Case Description

Professor Gene Lorenzo is someone who is very committed to student success in his classes. Juan identifies himself after the first class session as a student with a disability; he provides Professor Lorenzo with his letter of accommodation specifying that he needs extended time for exams. Professor Lorenzo tells Juan, "I'm going to keep a close eye on you throughout the course, so that we make sure you do just fine. I'd like you to make sure you sit in this front row seat every class, so that I can monitor your notes and check on your work completion as needed." When exam study sessions are scheduled, Professor Lorenzo says to Juan, "I'll expect to see you at the review session tonight, Juan."

Is Professor Lorenzo responding in an appropriate way to Juan's need for support in his classroom?
