Does Working Memory Moderate the Effects of Fraction Intervention? An Aptitude-Treatment Interaction
Direct linkFuchs, Lynn S.; Schumacher, Robin F.; Sterba, Sonya K.; Long, Jessica; Namkung, Jessica; Malone, Amelia; Hamlett, Carol L.; Jordan, Nancy C.; Gersten, Russell; Siegler, Robert S.; Changas, Paul – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2014
This study investigated whether individual differences in working memory (WM) moderate effects of 2 variations of intervention designed to improve at-risk 4th graders' fraction knowledge. We also examined the effects of each intervention condition against a business-as-usual control group and assessed whether children's measurement interpretation…

Jitendra, Asha K.; Rodriguez, Michael; Kanive, Rebecca; Huang, Ju-Ping; Church, Chris; Corroy, Kelly A.; Zaslofsky, Anne – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2013
This intervention study compared the efficacy of small-group tutoring on the mathematics learning of third-grade students at risk for mathematics difficulty using either a school-provided standards-based curriculum (SBC) or a schema-based instruction (SBI) curriculum. The SBI curriculum placed particular emphasis on the underlying mathematical…

Justice, Laura M.; McGinty, Anita S.; Piasta, Shayne B.; Kaderavek, Joan N.; Fan, Xitao – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2010
Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of teachers' use of a print-referencing style during whole-class read-alouds with respect to accelerating 4- and 5-year-old children's print-knowledge development. It also examined 8 specific child- and setting-level moderators to determine whether these influenced the relation…

Ryan, Michael P.; Glenn, Patricia A. – Journal of College Reading and Learning, 2004
This paper presents an analysis of two common seminar formats: those based on learning- strategies interventions and those based on academic socialization interventions. The results of a natural experiment allowed a comparison of the retention impact of a strategy-based seminar and a socialization-focused seminar. For both more and less…

Peer reviewedSchunk, Dale H.; Cox, Paula D. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1986
An experiment investigated: (1) how verbalization of subtraction with regrouping operations influenced learning disabled students' self-efficacy and skillful performance; and (2) explored how effort-attributional feedback affected achievement behaviors. Continuous feedback led to high self-efficacy and skillful performance, and effort feedback…

Peer reviewedBerninger, Virginia W.; Vaughan, Katherine; Abbott, Robert D.; Begay, Kristin; Coleman, Kristina Byrd; Curtain, Gerald; Hawkins, Jill Minich; Graham, Steve – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2002
Third graders with low compositional fluency were randomly assigned to four time-equated treatments in an instructional experiment: spelling, composing, combined spelling plus composing, and treated control. All treatments increased compositional fluency. Results are related to the simple view of writing that integrates diverse theoretical…

Peer reviewedAnand, Padma G.; Ross, Steven M. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1987
The purpose of this research was to design and evaluate a computer based adaptive strategy for teaching mathematics. Results indicated preference for materials with personalized examples for motivation and meaningful learning of problem solving procedures. Practical advantages of the computer-based model for adapting instruction are also…
