Feeney, Danielle M.; Morgan, Joseph J.; Rodgers, Wendy J.; Brown, Monica R.; Relles, Stefani R. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2023
A self-talk monitoring and goal-oriented thinking (STM+GOT) intervention package was used to teach four U.S. middle school students with high-incidence disabilities to develop and track progress toward self-determined behavioral goals. A multiple baseline across participants design was used to determine the effects of STM+GOT on both behavior and…

Susan De La Paz; Cameron Butler; Daniel M. Levin; Mark K. Felton – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2024
Writing in science can be challenging for all learners, and it is especially so for students with cognitive or language-based learning difficulties. We examined the effects of a cognitive apprenticeship on student disciplinary writing skills as well as near and far transfer of learning outcomes. This instructional approach included a gradual…

Little to no information exists explaining the nature of conceptual gaps in understanding fractions for students with learning disabilities (LD); such information is vital to practitioners seeking to develop instruction or interventions. Many researchers argue such knowledge can be revealed through student's problem-solving strategies. Despite…
