More students with disabilities are entering doctoral programs now than ever before (Welding, 2023). The processes these students must undertake to disclose their disability and request accommodations are complex. The purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with doctoral students with learning disabilities (LD) and/or…

Students identified with Emotional/Behavioral Disorders (EBD) often exhibit behavioral challengtablees that negatively affect their academic performance. One of the weaker academic areas for these students lies in reading. Although numerous research on interventions to improve their reading outcomes has been conducted, some students continue to…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of utilizing explicit instruction, point-of-view video modeling, and augmented reality technology to teach mathematics to students with disabilities. A multiple probe single-case research design was used. Three students with Learning Disabilities (LD) who were receiving special education…

This study investigates typing skill acquisition in Japanese children with developmental dyslexia (DD) and other developmental disorders (ADHD, ASD). Given that phonological processing difficulties impair reading and writing, typing may serve as an alternative skill for written expression. Sixty-one students (ages 7-18) participated in five typing…

Post-secondary students with learning disabilities like dyslexia experience a wide range of emotions related to classroom assessment, perhaps in part because assessment may feel unfair and undermine principles related to wellbeing. To mitigate negative emotions, researchers tend to focus on teaching students how to cope with test anxiety and exam…

The researchers conducted a qualitative case study on a learning community comprising special education and psychology majors. This community was strategically organized to foster interdisciplinary learning among its members and to design interventions for students struggling with mathematics anxiety, specifically in classes like Algebra 1.…

Fractions are an integral part of the mathematics curriculum. Most students acquire proficiency with these concepts during the course of their elementary education and are usually able to perform basic fractions operations when reaching middle-school age. However, a considerable number of students require extra help to not fall further and further…

The researcher conducted a qualitative case study of two sessions of a preservice teacher tutoring a student with a learning disability on Algebra 1 content. In this study, the focus was the tutor's use of gestures overlaid on the students' offloaded work on paper to help the student make sense of the problems. The student also demonstrated how…

Difficulties of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity frequently cooccur with learning disabilities (LD) in childhood (Riccio et al., 1994; Silver, 2004), and are associated with increased risk for maladaptive academic and social-emotional outcomes (Morrison & Cosden, 1997; Bender, 2008). The present study endeavored to further our…

This study examined knowledge of the Arabic language in special and general education teachers, using a knowledge survey, Knowledge of Arabic Morphology and Phonology (KAMP). The KAMP was administered to 180 teachers teaching students with reading disabilities to examine their knowledge and determine whether it was influenced by differences in…

While school performance suggests students with learning disabilities require intervention to demonstrate mathematics proficiency, little is known about how they approach problem solving in secondary geometry. Think aloud protocols highlight the higher order thinking skills underlying complex academic tasks. We conducted an exploratory descriptive…

In transparent orthographic systems, such as the Greek one, reading problems of students with reading disabilities are related mostly to reading fluency rather than to decoding. Consequently, systematic and explicit instruction in reading fluency is considered necessary. Therefore, our major research goal in this study was the development of…

This study examines the effects of a working memory (WM) sensitive math intervention in students with learning disabilities (LD). The intervention aims to improve early mathematical competencies while accounting for weak cognitive resources through a reduced instructional design. These principles are considered to be effective for learning. Ten…

The purpose of this research was to develop guidelines for the production of an educational mobile application and to assess the opinions of its users (students and teachers). The study included 10 students with learning disabilities and 10 teachers from private special education rehabilitation clinics who work with them. Teachers were asked to…

Adolescents with specific learning disabilities face more challenges due to their poor academic performance, affecting the development of social skills and struggles in identity formation. This study examined the coping and perceived social support of adolescents with and without learning disabilities. This study also investigated the relationship…
