Zhang, Dake; Wang, Qiu; Ding, Yi; Liu, Jeremy Jian – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2014
According to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, geometry and spatial sense are fundamental components of mathematics learning. However, learning disabilities (LD) research has shown that many K-12 students encounter particular geometry difficulties (GD). This study examined the effect of an integrated object representation (IOR)…

Gregg, Noel; Coleman, Chris; Davis, Mark; Chalk, Jill C. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2007
The majority of high-stakes tests from elementary school through postsecondary education include the timed impromptu essay as a measure of writing performance. For adolescents with writing disorders, this type of evaluation often presents a significant barrier. The purpose of the current study was twofold. First, we investigated the influence of…
