More students with disabilities are entering doctoral programs now than ever before (Welding, 2023). The processes these students must undertake to disclose their disability and request accommodations are complex. The purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with doctoral students with learning disabilities (LD) and/or…

This paper presents a study that investigated how students labelled as having learning disabilities experienced attributions from their teachers and the impacts of the attributions for these students' learning and interactions. The article explores the phenomena from an attribution theoretical lens. Ethnographic case study underpinned the research…

A disproportionate number of students from low socio-economic statuses (SES) are enrolled in special education as students with specific learning disabilities (SLD). Despite resources provided through special education, only a small percentage of students are exited before secondary school. This instrumental case study investigated the variables…

The purpose of this dissertation is to evaluate the effectiveness of graphic organizers, specifically flowcharts, as a tool to support decision-making during spelling for students identified with learning disabilities. This dissertation is composed of five chapters. The first chapter is an introduction about how graphic organizers support students…

Parental involvement is an important component in education that is linked to positive outcomes in terms of academic performance and achievement. Much of the literature on parental involvement consists of studies located in the United States, while comparatively few studies pertain to parental involvement in the Gulf Nations, especially in the…

Engagement and academic achievement are generally correlated among elementary school students without learning disabilities (LDs). However, it is unclear if this pattern holds for students with LDs, who have lower achievement and engagement than their peers. This study examined whether links between achievement and student-reported behavioral…

Introduction: The Relationships and Sexuality Research Team consists of researchers with learning disabilities who specialise in research on sexual citizenship and use visual and creative research methods. They are collaborating with academics on an innovative, cross-national, interdisciplinary and co-produced research project that brings together…

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of technology-supported mathematical modeling method on the mathematical skills of a fourth-grade student with Mathematical Learning Disabilities. The study group consists of a fourth-grade student. It was discovered that the student lacked numerical and logical skills compared to other students.…

The extent to which reading achievement is causally impacted by eligibility for special education services due to a learning disability (LD) or speech or language impairment (SLI) is currently unclear. In this registered report, we analyzed U.S. national data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study--Kindergarten Cohort of 2010-2011 (ECLS-K:…

Background/purpose. Students with learning disabilities (SLDs), bilingual learners (BLs), and English language learners (ELLs) represent heterogeneous groups. With the rising number of SLDs and the expansion of English as a second language instruction in Saudi elementary schools, a critical challenge emerges: How can learning disabilities (LDs) be…

We examined the effect of intervention dosage on mathematics outcomes for students with or at risk for mathematics learning disability in kindergarten through third grade. Using linear and nonlinear models, we meta-analyzed 164 effect sizes from 24 published experimental and quasi-experimental studies. Results supported a linear model and an…

In the updated third edition of this unique book, Catherine McBride looks at reading and writing development and impairment across a range of languages, scripts, and contexts.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Realistic Mathematics Education Strategies Mobile App (REMSAM) on the mathematical problem solving performance of students with learning disabilities (LD). The participants of this study consisted of five children (three girls, two boys) with LD. The study was carried out based on a…

The aim of the study is to examine the effect of ABC linking activity on misspelled words in eliminating the writing errors of students with dysgraphia. The study group of the research consisted of 12 students with dysgraphia-induced writing errors who were studying in the second grade at Aybey Primary School in Usak/Türkiye in the 2021-2022…

The importance of text complexity has gained recognition since the Common Core State Standards (CCSS-ELA) were developed. The "Linking Science and Literacy for All Learners" (LS&L4AL) program uses multimodal STEM text sets to link reading grade-band complex texts with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) sense-making. We define a…
