Delia Leuenberger; Elisabeth Moser Opitz; Noemi Gloor – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2024
Computation competence (CC) in simple addition and subtraction using non-counting (NC) strategies is an important learning objective in Grade 1 mathematics but many children, especially low achievers in mathematics, struggle to acquire these skills. To provide these students with the support they need, it is important to have valid and reliable…

Leanne R. Ketterlin-Geller; Muhammad Qadeer Haider; Jennifer McMurrer – Educational Assessment, 2024
This article illustrates and differentiates the unique role cognitive interviews and think-aloud interviews play in developing and validating assessments. Specifically, we describe the use of (a) cognitive interviews to gather empirical evidence to support claims about the intended construct being measured and (b) think-aloud interviews to gather…

Russo, Jaclyn M.; McKown, Clark; Russo-Ponsaran, Nicole M.; Allen, Adelaide M. – Grantee Submission, 2018
Few Spanish language tools are available for assessing important social-emotional learning (SEL) skills. The present study presents evidence of the psychometric properties of a Spanish-language version of SELweb (SELweb-S), a web-based system for assessing children's ability to recognize others' emotions and perspectives, solve social problems,…

Cooper, Phil – Mathematics Teaching, 2011
This article sets out how the author believes mathematics might be taught in creative ways. It is about the author's developing thoughts on how he teaches mathematics, how his class responds to his teaching, and how he adjusts his teaching through assessment of children's learning. Through observations and assessment of learning following his…

Cheng, Yi-Ling; Mix, Kelly – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2011
The authors' primary aim was to investigate a potential causal relationship between spatial ability and math ability. To do so, they used a pretest-training-posttest experimental design in which children received short-term spatial training and were tested on problem solving in math. They focused on first and second graders because earlier studies…

Lembke, Erica S.; McMaster, Kristen L.; Stecker, Pamela M. – Psychology in the Schools, 2010
The purpose of this article is to describe research-based reading intervention within a Response-to-Intervention (RTI) model, using prevention science as a context. First, RTI is defined and a rationale is provided for its use in improving the reading performance of all students, particularly those students identified as at risk for…

Fuchs, Douglas; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Compton, Donald L. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2004
This article first describes two types of assessment (problem solving and standard treatment protocol) within a "responsiveness-to-instruction" framework to identify learning disabilities. It then specifies two necessary components (measures and classification criteria) to assess responsiveness-to-instruction, and present pertinent findings from…
