Students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are included in the general education classroom more often than ever before. Despite mathematical strengths and early success, these students experience poor outcomes (academic and employment) compared to their typically developing peers. The language of mathematics increases in complexity, use, and…

This study aimed to investigate the moderating effect of morphological awareness on the relationship between word detection skills and reading comprehension in Chinese children with and without dyslexia. The study included 116 Chinese children in third to sixth grades, with 60 children diagnosed with dyslexia and 56 matching typically developing…

While there is vast research on teachers' attitudes toward inclusive education, few studies have targeted the attitudes and self-efficacy toward inclusive education in charter schools in the United States. The purpose of this study is to explore teachers' attitudes and self-efficacy toward inclusive education based on having attended a teacher…

College students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are a growing population, and they bring strengths and unique ways of processing information and solving problems. However, the academic success of students with ADHD has lagged behind that of their peers without ADHD, and higher education has not traditionally been designed to…

This study is a secondary analysis of the data collected in a randomized control trial study with sixth graders with mathematics learning difficulties (MLDs). We explored the relation between mathematics anxiety and mathematics performance for students with and without MLD. We further explored whether mathematics vocabulary and computational…

The current scoping review synthesizes the literature on interventions targeting anxiety in individuals with a learning disability (LD). Specifically, the review identifies types of interventions, outcomes, and barriers to or facilitators of implementation of interventions by school staff. The available literature was analyzed using a descriptive…

The importance of mathematical problem solving (MPS) has been widely recognized. While there has been significant progress in developing and studying interventions to support teaching and learning MPS for students with disabilities, the research on how to accurately and effectively assess the impact of those interventions has lagged, leaving a gap…

There is no handbook to being a parent. Much less being a parent of a child with special educational needs. "How do you support your child in school? Where do you even begin to try and access local services? What can you expect from your local authority?" Co-written by a parent who has been there and a SEND professional who understands…

We present a systematic review of 29 empirical studies on disability and fieldwork in natural science, postsecondary educational settings. Undergraduate students with disabilities are underrepresented in STEM, and disciplines requiring major field components are some of the least diverse, at least in part because fieldwork has been traditionally…

The objective of our study is to assess the integration of the concept of special educational needs (SEN) retrospectively and analytically within the Romanian legal framework and its consolidation as a fundamental component of national education policy. Concurrently, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness of inclusive education for children with SEN…

Parents of children with disabilities are an important part of their child's special education team. However, parents often have limited involvement in school-based therapies that are provided as part of a child's Individualized Education Program. The field lacks tools to assess the domain and extent of parent needs for optimal engagement in their…

Time is a concept often spoken and written about, but rarely identified as an asset for individuals with disabilities, particularly in Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI). The following discusses how systems and processes are impacted by time. The article further focuses on practical applications associated with time in supporting students with…

Wireless remote microphones (WRM) are used as secondary assistive listening devices for students with hearing aids or cochlear implants to limit the negative effects of noise and distance for understanding speech. WRM technology is not yet widespread in the Czech Republic. The aim of this study was to use teachers' perspectives to compare the…

The terms Language Disorder, Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), Language-based learning disabilities, Specific Learning Disorder, and Specific Learning Disability are commonly used to describe children struggling to learn at school. In this position paper, the definitions and distinctions between these terms are discussed, and key overlaps and…

For students to learn adequately depends, among other things, on keeping teachers' knowledge up to date. Thus the continuous training of teachers is essential, both for new teachers and those with more experience. The aim of this study was to detect the training needs on Specific Learning Disabilities (SLDs) of active primary-education teachers.…
