Firat, Tahsin; Ergul, Cevriye – Educational Research Quarterly, 2019
One of the main reasons why students with learning disabilities have difficulty in reading comprehension is their inability to have metacognitive skills such as planning, monitoring and evaluating their reading performance. In this context, the study aimed to investigate the effects of the TWA strategy ["Think Before Reading, Think While…

Dougherty, Barbara; Bryant, Diane Pedrotty; Bryant, Brian R.; Darrough, Rebecca L.; Pfannenstiel, Kathleen Hughes – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2015
Many students with learning disabilities (LD) in mathematics receive their mathematics education in general education inclusive classes; therefore, these students must be capable of learning algebraic concepts, including developing algebraic thinking abilities, that are part of the general education curriculum. To help students develop algebraic…

Rouse, Christina A.; Alber-Morgan, Sheila R.; Cullen, Jennifer M.; Sawyer, Mary – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2014
Students with LD who struggle with reading comprehension can benefit from instruction on how to read strategically. One strategy that has been demonstrated to increase reading comprehension is self-questioning. In this study, two fifth graders with LD were taught to self-generate questions using a prompt fading procedure. The participants were…

Haegele, Katherine; Burns, Matthew K. – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2015
The amount of information that students can successfully learn and recall at least 1 day later is called an acquisition rate (AR) and is unique to the individual student. The current study extended previous drill rehearsal research with word recognition by (a) using students identified with a learning disability in reading, (b) assessing set sizes…

Goodman, Ashley; McLaughlin, T. F.; Derby, K. Mark; Everson, Mary – Educational Research Quarterly, 2015
Spelling skills are vital in teaching students to read and write effectively. One method to help students learn to spell words correctly is called cover, copy, and compare (CCC). This study was designed to evaluate the effects of using CCC on the spelling and writing skills of three students with learning disabilities. These skills were measured…

Skarr, Adam; Zielinski, Katie; Ruwe, Kellen; Sharp, Hannah; Williams, Randy L.; McLaughlin, T. F. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2014
The purpose of this study was to determine if a typical third-grade boy and fifth-grade girl and a boy with learning disabilities could benefit from the combined use of Direct Instruction (DI) flashcard and math racetrack procedures in an after-school program. The dependent variable was accuracy and fluency of saying basic multiplication facts. A…

Strickland, Tricia K.; Maccini, Paula – Remedial and Special Education, 2013
We examined the effects of the Concrete-Representational-Abstract Integration strategy on the ability of secondary students with learning disabilities to multiply linear algebraic expressions embedded within contextualized area problems. A multiple-probe design across three participants was used. Results indicated that the integration of the…

Scanlon, David; Cass, Richard; Amtzis, Alan; Sideridis, Georgios – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2009
Both inclusion and challenging content area curricula require student proficiency in skills of learning. Strategy instruction that is supported with graphic procedural facilitators can help to meet that requirement, particularly for more complex, or higher order, tasks. Ninety-eight 8th graders with and without learning disabilities learned a…

Flores, Margaret M.; Houchins, David E.; Shippen, Margaret E. – International Journal of Special Education, 2006
The purpose of this series of case studies was to compare the impact of Constant Time Delay and Strategic Instruction on the maintenance and generalization of learning. Four middle school students with learning disabilities were effectively taught two different groups of multiplication facts using Constant Time Delay and Strategic instruction. The…
