English term or phrase: Test remediation
I would like the word "test remediation" translated. It is on one of forms. I work for the special education department for our school district and I can't seem to find remediation in any English/Spanish dictionary that I have. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Explanation:
At San Jose Unified School District, in California, where I work, the word "remedial" is translated as "compensatorio" or "correctivo". For example: "Remedial Support" is "Apoyo compensatorio o correctivo", "Remedial Reading" is "Lectura compensatoria o correctiva". My suggestion for "Test Remediation" would be "Compensación o corrección mediante exámenes."
Here's also an excellent web page in English and Spanish for more information in the Special Education area.

examen de recuperación


Explanation:
Hello. Here I add two links for you to compare and draw your own conclusions: "Regents Test Remediation Readi
A course designed to prepare students who have failed the
reading portion of the Regent's Test to retake the test. Will involve practioce reading tests as well as
individualised assignments designed to address specific
reading problems. (Required in the term immediately following failure of the reading portion)". And link 2:
"EARTH - Admisión... trimestre, con una nota mínima de 7.0. Sin embargo, con una nota entre 6 y 7, tiene derecho a tomar un examen de recuperación. En el caso que tenga una nota ... " It's all the same stuff to me: you fail then you gotta pass an "examen de recuperación". You can check http://www.google.com/search?q=examen de recuperaci�n&hl=es&lr=...
for more instances. Good luck :-)

parcial recuperatorio o examen recuperatorio


Explanation:
ASí los llamamos en Argentina. Los exámenes que se pueden recuperar son los parciales, ya que los finales son eliminatorios. Los exámenes parciales son los que se van dando a lo largo del curso o de la materia.
