In this paper, part of a larger study investigating the efficacy of targeted tuition for 30 upper primary and middle school students with mathematical learning difficulties (MLD) is described. Mathematics anxiety (MA) was measured before and after 24 individual tuition sessions delivered to one group by personal videoconferencing (PVC) and to…

Gervasoni, Ann; Parish, Linda; Hadden, Teresa; Livesey, Carole; Bevan, Kate; Croswell, Melissa; Turkenburg, Kathie – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2012
The "Extending Mathematical Understanding" (EMU) Program is a specialised mathematics program that aims to accelerate the learning of Grade 1 students who struggle with learning school mathematics. Forty-two students participated in an EMU Program in 2010 as part of the "Bridging the Numeracy Gap" (BTNG) project. Analysis of…

Response to Intervention (RTI) is a popular if controversial initiative developed largely in the USA, but which is, as yet, little known in general education in Australia. However, this may change given the increased attention to accountability in recent times. The national NAPLAN and international PISA assessments are leading to pressure being…

Mcconnell, David; Dalziel, Allison; Llewellyn, Gwynnyth; Laidlaw, Kathryn; Hindmarsh, Gabrielle – British Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2009
Mothers with learning difficulties are often isolated within their local communities. They also report low levels of social support. Social disconnection is associated with high levels of stress and poorer mental health, and in turn, adverse parenting and child outcomes. In the study reported here, a multi-site, intervention group only, repeated…

Bellert, Anne – Australian Journal of Learning Difficulties, 2009
This article focuses on the cognitive factors that impact on students in the middle school years experiencing learning difficulties in basic mathematics. It begins with a review of selected literature providing information about the learning difficulties in mathematics. Focus then shifts to an implementation of the "Quicksmart"…
