Many students with learning disabilities (LD) struggle to develop text-writing fluency: the skill of accurately and efficiently composing multiple words into sentences and passages understandable to readers. In prior studies, researchers have used instructional assessments to control for task difficulty and identify precise areas of text-writing…

Automaticity in discrete skills is vital to developing proficiency in the higher-order abilities necessary for successful school, work, and social outcomes. Unfortunately, many students struggle with this automaticity. Strategic incremental rehearsal (SIR) is an efficient flashcard intervention that improves discrete skill acquisition. This…

Fractions are an important concept used throughout advanced mathematical ideas and everyday life. Students need a solid understanding of fraction concepts, such as magnitude, equivalence, and operations. However, many students, including students with learning disabilities (LD) in mathematics, struggle with fractions. In this article, the use of…

Researchers have repeatedly found schematic diagrams, both as part of Modified Schema Based Instruction and outside of this problem-solving approach, effective for teaching students with disabilities, including intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), to solve math word problems. The current study was a systematic replication of Bouck,…

Establishing validated science programs for students with or at risk for learning disabilities requires testing treatment effects and exploring differential response patterns. This study explored whether students' initial mathematics and reading skills influenced their treatment response to a whole-class, second-grade science program called…

The purpose of this registered report study was to determine the effects of explicit text structure instruction on the expository text comprehension of students with language and learning disabilities (LLD) using a multiple baseline design across conditions (e.g., compare-contrast and cause-effect) and participants. Participants included four…

Background: "Remaking Recess (RR)" is a school-based evidence-based peer social engagement intervention for autistic students. RR involves direct training and coaching with educators; however, educators face several barriers to implementation at both the individual- and organizational-levels. This protocol paper describes a multi-site…
