Darius Endlich; Wolfgang Lenhard; Peter Marx; Tobias Richter – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2024
Children with mathematical difficulties need to spend more time than typically achieving children on solving even simple equations. Since these tasks already require a larger share of their cognitive resources, additional demands imposed by the need to switch between tasks may lead to a greater decline of performance in children with mathematical…

Korkmaz, Nurdan; Temur, Özlem Dogan – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2022
The purpose of this study is to electrophysiologically assess the effect of an individualized education program supported with musical activities on the success of primary school students with computational difficulties. A mixed-methods design consisting of qualitative and quantitative methods was employed as the research model. The research group…

Benson, Geetal – ProQuest LLC, 2013
This study examined the isolated effects of Cover, Copy and Compare (CCC) and the effects of CCC paired with performance feedback (CCC + PF) and rewards (CCC + RW) on the mathematical calculation skills of first grade students identified with math difficulty. Four research questions were addressed in this study. 1. Does Cover, Copy, and Compare…

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…

Miller, Susan P.; Kaffar, Bradley J. – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2011
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using the concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) teaching sequence with integrated strategy instruction for developing addition with regrouping competence among students with learning difficulties in mathematics. A total of 16 lessons were provided to 24 students during a six-week…

Cumming, J. Joy; Elkins, John – Mathematical Cognition, 1999
Examines 109 children from grades 3 through 6 for computational facility and the relationship between automaticity, or efficient processing of addition facts, and success in more complex tasks. Indicates that most errors on the multidigit sums were due to fact inaccuracy, not algorithmic errors. Discusses instructional implications for students…
