Margaret M. Flores; Vanessa M. Hinton; Kelly B. Schweck – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2024
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the concrete-representational-abstract--integrated (CRA-I) sequence on students with learning disabilities' performance when learning fraction and decimal concepts. Three elementary-level students in Grades 4 and 6 participated in a single-case multiple probe across behaviors study. The…

Andrew Swanlund; Gurjeet Dhillon Dhillon; Charlotte Chen – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background/Context: The U.S has experienced years of lost progress in math because of the COVID-19 pandemic (NAEP, n.d.a). Fraction understanding is widely characterized as the gatekeeper to algebra (Booth et al., 2012; National Mathematics Advisory Panel, 2008) and can support success in middle and high school math (Bailey et al., 2012; Booth et…

Nicole Müllerke; Linda Bell; Jennifer Karnes; Anne Barwasser; Matthias Grünke – Insights into Learning Disabilities, 2024
This single-case study investigates the effectiveness of video modeling for teaching the Look, Ask, Pick (LAP) strategy to three seventh-grade students with learning disabilities. The participants watched video segments explaining the technique to solve fraction problems. Results from the intervention revealed substantial performance improvements…

Hunt, Jessica H.; Martin, Kristi; Khounmeuang, Andy; Silva, Juanita; Patterson, Blain; Welch-Ptak, Jasmine – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2023
One of the most persistent areas of difficulty in mathematics for children with learning disabilities (LDs) and difficulties is fractions. We report the development and initial testing of an intervention designed to increase access to and advancement in conceptual understanding. Our asset-based theory of change--a tested and confirmed learning…

Kristie J. Newton; Amanda Jansen; Peter Puleo – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2024
Despite the documented influence of motivation on mathematics learning for most students, we understand far less about this relation for students identified with learning disabilities. Based on Rogoff's three planes of analysis (i.e., personal, community, and interpersonal), we gathered survey, interview, and video data to understand the…

Bouck, Emily C.; Long, Holly – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2023
Mathematics education for students with and at-risk for a disability is important and high-quality, research-supported practices should be used for online teaching--whether intentional or as a result of a global pandemic. This single-case design multiple probe replicated across participants study explored the online delivery of an intervention…

Martin, Kristi; Hunt, Jessica H. – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2022
One challenge facing the fields of mathematics education and special education is how to design instruction on fraction concepts that can meet the needs of diverse learners. An innovation that shows promise is to base instructional design upon well-established trajectories of students' fraction learning. However, little research has been done to…

Sulaiman O. Adeoye – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) students' performance on fraction story problems is a cause for concern given that knowledge of fractions in the elementary grades is essential for learning Algebra in secondary school and advanced mathematics in college. Using grounded theory, the current study investigated DHH college students' cognitive strategies…
