Bouck, Emily C.; Park, Jiyoon – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Virtual manipulatives are an emerging intervention to support students with disabilities in mathematics. Through a multiple probe across participants design, researchers examined use of an intervention package consisting of a virtual manipulative (i.e., the Two-Color Counter app-based manipulative) and the system of least prompts (SLP) to support…

Chapman, Suzannah M.; Ault, Melinda Jones; Spriggs, Amy D.; Bottge, Brian A.; Shepley, Sally B. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2019
A multiple probe across participants design was used to examine the effectiveness of a treatment package to teach students with moderate intellectual disability how to solve simple linear equations. The investigator read realistic scenarios of a problem, used actual items as manipulatives, presented a visual aid of the equation, and used a system…

Bouck, Emily C.; Chamberlain, Courtney; Park, Jiyoon – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2017
Manipulatives support students with and without disabilities in mathematics. However, as students age, concrete manipulatives can be limiting and potentially not age appropriate (Satsangi, 2015). An alternative is virtual manipulatives, including app-based manipulatives. This study compared the use of app-based manipulatives to concrete…

Stroizer, Shaunita; Hinton, Vanessa; Flores, Margaret; Terry, LaTonya – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2015
Students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have unique educational needs. The concrete representational abstract (CRA) instructional sequence has been shown effective in teaching students with mathematical difficulties. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the CRA sequence in teaching students with ASD. A multiple baseline…

Cote, Debra L.; Jones, Vita L.; Barnett, Crystal; Pavelek, Karin; Nguyen, Hoang; Sparks, Shannon L. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2014
Students with disabilities need problem-solving skills to promote their success in solving the problems of daily life. The research into problem-solving instruction has been limited for students with autism. Using a problem-solving intervention and the Self Determined Learning Model of Instruction, three elementary age students with autism were…

Fletcher, Dale; Boon, Richard T.; Cihak, David F. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2010
The purpose of this study was to systematically replicate and extend previous studies of the TOUCHMATH program, a multi-sensory mathematics program (Bullock, Pierce, & McClellan, 1989). Three middle school students with moderate and multiple disabilities (e.g., autism and moderate intellectual disabilities) participated. Students were taught how…
