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…

Litster, Kristy; Moyer-Packenham, Patricia S.; Reeder, Rachel – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2019
The purpose of the inquiry was to understand how children in primary grades (i.e., preschool, kindergarten, and second grade) engaged with affordances and constraints of features in a Base-10 Blocks virtual manipulative mathematics app designed to promote learning opportunities. Researchers conducted one-to-one interviews with 100 primary grade…

Bassette, Laura; Bouck, Emily; Shurr, Jordan; Park, Jiyoon; Cremeans, McKenzie – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2019
Elementary students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) who struggle with mathematics may be limited in opportunities to pursue advanced mathematics potentially impacting post-school outcomes, including postsecondary education and employment opportunities. Interventions that provide visual instruction, such as manipulatives, along with systematic…

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…

Resnick, Ilyse; Verdine, Brian; Golinkoff, Roberta; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy – Grantee Submission, 2016
Preschoolers' experiences with shapes are important because geometry is foundational to aspects of mathematics and it is now part of the Common Core for school-readiness. Exposure to shapes also provides experiences that are key to developing spatial thinking more broadly. Yet achieving a strong conceptual understanding of geometric categories can…
