Boote, Stacy K.; Galanti, Terrie M. – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2023
Mathematics achievement is positively associated with coding in the classroom. By making mathematical relationships visible to students as they code, teachers leverage rich connections between block-based computer programming and mathematical sense making. In this article, the authors describe strategies for adapting a Code.org lesson integrating…

Losinski, Mickey L.; Ennis, Robin P.; Sanders, Sara A.; Nelson, Jessica A. – Journal of Special Education, 2019
Math outcomes for students with disabilities, in particular students with emotional disturbance (ED), are bleak, warranting intervention strategies that have research to support their utility. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to examine the literature of math interventions used with students with ED to improve math outcome variables. Our…
