Direct linkWang, Amber Y.; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Fuchs, Douglas; Gilbert, Jennifer K.; Krowka, Sarah; Abramson, Rebecca – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2019
The purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy of fractions intervention with and without an embedded self-regulation (SR) component for third-grade students at risk for mathematics disabilities. Fractions intervention focused on magnitude understanding and word problems. Embedded SR was designed to support a growth mindset (fostering…

Fuchs, Lynn S.; Malone, Amelia S.; Schumacher, Robin F.; Namkung, Jessica; Wang, Amber – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2017
In this article, the authors summarize results from 5 randomized controlled trials assessing the effects of intervention to improve the fraction performance of fourth-grade students at risk for difficulty in learning about fractions. The authors begin by explaining the importance of competence with fractions and why an instructional focus on…

Jitendra, Asha K.; Petersen-Brown, Shawna; Lein, Amy E.; Zaslofsky, Anne F.; Kunkel, Amy K.; Jung, Pyung-Gang; Egan, Andrea M. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2015
This study examined the quality of the research base related to strategy instruction priming the underlying mathematical problem structure for students with learning disabilities and those at risk for mathematics difficulties. We evaluated the quality of methodological rigor of 18 group research studies using the criteria proposed by Gersten et…

Peer reviewedJitendra, Asha K.; Hoff, Kathryn – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1996
This study examined effects of a schema-based direct instruction strategy on the word problem-solving performance of three third- and fourth-grade students with learning disabilities. The intervention was successful in increasing the percentage of correct solutions to word problems for all three students. Maintenance was seen two to three weeks…

Peer reviewedEngelmann, Siegfried; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1991
Shortcomings of mathematics curricula are described and research on the use of sameness analysis with learning-disabled and at-risk students is outlined. The paper then illustrates how to teach addition-subtraction and multiplication-division relationships and their interrelationships in the context of solving word problems in mathematics.…

Peer reviewedMontague, Marjorie – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1992
Six students (ages 12-14) with learning disabilities received either cognitive or metacognitive strategy instruction for mathematical problem solving, followed by instruction in the complementary component. Results indicated that cognitive and metacognitive strategies were more effective than either cognitive or metacognitive strategy instruction…
