Students’ Understanding of Diagrams for Solving Word Problems
Content type: Journal Article
A visual representation, such as a diagram, can be a powerful strategy for solving mathematical word problems. However, using a representation to solve mathematical word problems is not as simple as it seems! Many students with learning disabilities...
Helping Students With Mathematics Difficulties Understand Ratios and Proportions
Content type: Journal Article
Ratios and proportions are foundational to student understanding across multiple topics in mathematics such as slope, constant rate of change, and similar figures, which are all fundamental to algebraic concepts and skills. The CCSS-M includes concepts and...
Mathematical Interventions for Secondary Students With Learning Disabilities and Mathematics Difficulties: A Meta-Analysis
Content type: Journal Article
This meta-analysis is the first to provide a quantitative synthesis of empirical evaluations of mathematical intervention programs implemented in secondary schools for students with learning disabilities and mathematics difficulties. Included studies used...
An Investigation of SRSD to Teach Fractions to Students With Disabilities
Content type: Journal Article
In the current study we examined the effect of a self-regulated strategy development intervention on the fraction calculations of students with or at risk for disabilities using a multiple-baseline-across-sites, single-case design. Specifically, the...
Math Language in Middle School: Be More Specific
Content type: Journal Article
The use of formal, consistent, and concise math language is important for students with learning difficulties, particularly during middle school when math language demands increase with each grade level and students are responsible for understanding...
Guided Practice for Complex, Multistep Procedures in Algebra: Scaffolding Through Worked Solutions
Content type: Journal Article
Students with learning disabilities (LD) struggle with many aspects of mathematics, and tasks requiring reasoning and explaining in algebra and other higher-level mathematics courses are often especially challenging. Solving problems correctly is part of...
Solving Algebraic Word Problems Using General Heuristics Instruction
Content type: Journal Article
Solving word problems is a large part of algebra coursework and statewide testing. However, solving secondary mathematics word problems is difficult for most students and extremely challenging for students with specific learning disabilities (SLD). In...
Implementing the Science of Math in a Culturally Sustainable Framework for Students With and at Risk for Math Learning Disabilities
Content type: Journal Article
This article focuses on implementing the Science of Math through a culturally responsive framework designed to support culturally and linguistically diverse students in math classrooms. We consider the influence of (second) language acquisition and...
Unpacking and Understanding Specific Learning Disabilities in Mathematics
Content type: Journal Article
Mathematical knowledge and skills are critical in the development of students. In this article, we begin to unpack the concept of mathematics disabilities and how they are presented across classrooms. We explain commonly used terms such as, specific...
Anchoring Problem-Solving and Computation Instruction in Context-Rich Learning Environments
Content type: Journal Article
Middle school students with learning disabilities in math (MLD) used two versions of Enhanced Anchored Instruction (EAI). In one condition, students learned how to compute with fractions on an as-needed basis while they worked to solve the EAI problems. In...
