Amber DeBono; Michele Heimbauer; Elizabeth Mendelsohn – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Prior Theory: Social-emotional learning (SEL) is the ability to manage emotions and social interactions adaptively to succeed in school, at work, in relationships, and in communities (Jones & Doolittle, 2017). The most cited SEL theory is the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) 5 model, which focuses on promoting…

Bouck, Emily C.; Park, Jiyoon; Stenzel, Kelly – Preventing School Failure, 2020
Assistive technology supports students with disabilities in a variety of ways, including serving as a means of instruction. Although virtual manipulatives can serve as an assistive technology tool, limited research examines virtual manipulatives in-and-of-themselves to support students with disabilities. This study explored app-based virtual…

Sharp, Emily; Shih Dennis, Minyi – Remedial and Special Education, 2017
This study used a multiple probe across participants design to examine the effects of a model drawing strategy (MDS) intervention package on fraction comparing and ordering word problem-solving performance of three Grade 4 students. MDS is a form of cognitive strategy instruction for teaching word problem solving that includes explicit instruction…

Shin, Mikyung; Bryant, Diane P. – Remedial and Special Education, 2017
Students with mathematics learning disabilities (MLD) have a weak understanding of fraction concepts and skills, which are foundations of algebra. Such students might benefit from computer-assisted instruction that utilizes evidence-based instructional components (cognitive strategies, feedback, virtual manipulatives). As a pilot study using a…

Swanson, H. Lee; Moran, Amber S.; Bocian, Kathleen; Lussier, Cathy; Zheng, Xinhua – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2013
This study investigated the role of generative strategies and working memory capacity on word problem solving accuracy in children with math difficulties (MD). Within classrooms, children in Grade 3 with MD ("n" = 69) were randomly assigned to one of three treatment conditions: paraphrase question propositions (Restate), paraphrase…

H. Lee Swanson; Catherine M. Lussier; Michael J. Orosco – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2015
This study investigated the role of strategy instruction and working memory capacity (WMC) on word problem solving accuracy in children with (n = 100) and without (n = 92) math difficulties (MD). Within classrooms, children in Grades 2 and 3 were randomly assigned to one of four treatment conditions: verbal-only strategies (e.g., underlining…
