Mathematics intervention research has established several effective interventions for building accuracy and fluency of math fact computation, as well as components that may improve student learning rates. While several evidence-based interventions promoting math fact accuracy and fluency exist, further work is needed to determine additional…

The days of "deep learning for some, rote learning for most" are over. Project based learning (PBL) is a powerful educational approach that empowers students to: (1) Engage with authentic content; (2) Co-construct knowledge; (3) Work to solve real-world problems; and (4) Develop lifelong learning skills. Access to these foundational…

This study systematically explores instructional strategies that enhance students' problem-solving skills in physics through a systematic literature review. A systematic search and screening process was followed, and findings were synthesized using a weighted narrative approach due to methodological heterogeneity. A total of 118 articles were…

Mathematics skills are crucial in the current job market; however, many students with disabilities are graduating high school with limited mathematics knowledge and skills. Mathematics skills are fundamental for navigating the complexities of everyday life after high school, extending their importance beyond the workplace to community engagement.…

Transform mathematics instruction with the comprehensive mathematical competencies (CMC) framework--a research-based model that integrates seven essential competencies: conceptual and procedural integration, problem solving, logical reasoning, communication, tool use, pattern recognition, and student engagement. Through practical classroom…

Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is a useful framework designed to address diverse needs of students and has great potential for twice-exceptional (2e) students, or gifted students with disabilities. By integrating academic, behavioral, social-emotional, and collaborative components, MTSS provides targeted interventions through its tiered…
