Hellstrand, Heidi; Korhonen, Johan; Linnanmäki, Karin; Aunio, Pirjo – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2020
This manuscript presents a study in which the new version of the computer-based training programme, The Number Race (NR), was used as an intervention for mathematically low-performing children in grade one (M[subscript age] = 86.46, SD = 3.89). In addition to ordinary teacher instruction in mathematics, the intervention group (n = 29) received NR…

Morano, Stephanie; Randolph, Kathleen; Markelz, Andrew M.; Church, Naomi – TEACHING Exceptional Children, 2020
Math fact fluency involves the quick, accurate retrieval of basic arithmetic combinations and the ability to use this fact knowledge efficiently. Math fact retrieval is typically considered fluent when performed accurately within 2 to 3 seconds, and "efficiency" refers to students' ability to apply fact knowledge to more complex…

Kellems, Ryan O.; Eichelberger, Carrie; Cacciatore, Giulia; Jensen, Mikaela; Frazier, Brynn; Simons, Kalee; Zaru, Mai – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2020
The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of video-based mathematics instruction for seven middle school students with specific learning disability (SLD), using an augmented reality-based training package. The dependent variable was the percentage of steps students performed correctly to solve each type of mathematics problem. The…

Lozada-Yánez, Raúl; La-Serna-Palomino, Nora; Molina-Granja, Fernando – International Education Studies, 2019
By its nature, the learning of certain complex contents has always been a focus of attention and a challenge in the study of mathematics. This fact acquires greater importance if it is about the learning of children, because the psycho-cognitive skills of this type of user, especially when they attend the first levels of Basic General Education…

Foster, Matthew E.; Anthony, Jason L.; Clements, Doug H.; Sarama, Julie; Williams, Jeffrey M. – Grantee Submission, 2016
This study evaluated the effects of a mathematics software program, the Building Blocks software suite, on young children's mathematics performance. Participants included 247 Kindergartners from 37 classrooms in 9 schools located in low-income communities. Children within classrooms were randomly assigned to receive 21 weeks of computer-assisted…

Obersteiner, Andreas; Reiss, Kristina; Ufer, Stefan – Learning and Instruction, 2013
Theories of psychology and mathematics education recommend two instructional approaches to develop students' mental representations of number: The "exact" approach focuses on the development of exact representations of organized dot patterns; the "approximate" approach focuses on the approximate representation of analogue magnitudes. This study…

Salminen, Jonna; Koponen, Tuire; Räsänen, Pekka; Aro, Mikko – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2015
Weaknesses in early number skills have been found to be a risk factor for later difficulties in mathematical performance. Nevertheless, only a few intervention studies with young children have been published. In this study, the responsiveness to early support in kindergarteners with most severe difficulties was examined with two different computer…

Hammond, Jennifer L.; Hirt, Melissa; Hall, Scott S. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
Individuals diagnosed with fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common known form of inherited intellectual disability, are reported to exhibit considerable deficits in mathematical skills that are often attributed to brain-based abnormalities associated with the syndrome. We examined whether participants with FXS would display emergent…

Erkfritz-Gay, Karyn N. – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Past research has documented that the effectiveness of three different math strategies delivered to students via one-on-one instruction (i.e., cover-copy-compare (CCC); e.g., Skinner, Turco, Beatty, & Rasavage, 1989, traditional drill and practice (TDP); e.g., Cybriwsky & Schuster, 1990, and constant time delay (CTD); Kulik, 1994).

Sangwin, Christopher J. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2007
This paper concerns computer aided assessment (CAA) of mathematics in which a computer algebra system (CAS) is used to help assess students' responses to elementary algebra questions. Using a methodology of documentary analysis, we examine what is taught in elementary algebra. The STACK CAA system, http://www.stack.bham.ac.uk/, which uses the CAS…

Tatsuoka, Kikumi K. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1984
Forty-six junior high students were administered six tests after a variety of instructional units using PLATO and classroom instruction. Twenty-seven procedural errors in signed-number arithmetic problems were classified into two groups to facilitate investigating error changes at different times and designing remedial instruction.

Podell, David M.; And Others – Education and Training in Mental Retardation, 1992
This evaluation study with 94 elementary students (50 with mild mental handicap) compared computer-assisted instruction (CAI) and paper-and-pencil practices in promoting automatization of basic addition and subtraction skills. Findings suggested CAI was more effective but that the students with mental handicap required more practice than…

Pettit, Amy D. – 1986
Activities were provided for a target group of third grade students who were experiencing difficulty in mastering the skills required to solve problems involving money. The program's aims were to remediate these students by giving them the opportunity to use instructional software that would increase their mathematical vocabulary, strengthen the…

Hativa, Nira – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1988
A student was observed practicing arithmetic with a computer-assisted instruction (CAI) system. She enjoyed practice and believed that it helped. However, she consistently failed to solve problems on the computer that she could do with pencil and paper. This paper suggests reasons for her problems and draws implications for CAI. (Author/PK)
