Assistive Technologies
Being a public school teaching, means handling with a diverse student population. Giving written tests can be difficult, since there is an array of reading levels amongst the students. To assist the needs of my students, I would move my tests to the computer. Most digital tests have an option of having the questions and choices being read to the test taker. This can allow all my students to become more comfortable with computer based tests but also assist the students with lower reading levels.

Moving tests to computers are a great idea. In addition to what you pointed out font can be easily enlarged which can help those with reading difficulties due to visual reasons.
