Students with learning disabilities often struggle to explore and apply problem-solving strategies to mathematical word problems, with challenges becoming particularly evident when learning fractions due to their abstract nature and conceptual complexity. This study investigated the effects of Solve It! strategy combined with video modeling on…

Mathematics skills are crucial in the current job market; however, many students with disabilities are graduating high school with limited mathematics knowledge and skills. Mathematics skills are fundamental for navigating the complexities of everyday life after high school, extending their importance beyond the workplace to community engagement.…

Systematic instruction and video modeling are evidence-based practices for teaching academic skills to students with intellectual disabilities; however, its efficacy has not been established for teaching graphing skills in a small-group setting. Three elementary school students with hearing and intellectual disabilities were taught to describe…

Adults with intellectual disability may not learn safety skills needed to maintain the safety of those within their communities. Basic life-saving skills are valued by community members and increase independent and integrated living and employment opportunities. This study used an instructional package consisting of modeling, task analysis, and…

An established research base exists for using video modeling to teach students with severe disabilities. However, the application of this strategy for teaching academic skills to students with a learning disability is less known, particularly in secondary mathematics. Video modeling provides a resource for supplementary instruction using…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of video modeling and visual task analysis on the acquisition, maintenance, and engagement of washing cars for three Chinese adolescents with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. Video-based training was conducted in the conference room of a university-affiliated autism…

The current study examined the use of video modeling (VM)-based interventions to reduce the challenging behaviors of students with emotional or behavioral disorders. Each study was evaluated using Council for Exceptional Children's (CEC's) quality indicators for evidence-based practices. In addition, study effects were calculated along the three…

An adapted alternating treatments design was used to compare mother-developed and delivered social stories and video modeling in teaching social skills to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Mothers' opinions about the social validity of the study were also examined. Three mother-child dyads participated in the study. Results showed that…

Although paraprofessionals have become an increasingly integral part of special education services, most paraprofessionals lack training in evidence-based instructional strategies. We used a randomized contolled experimental design to examine the efficacy of a professional development training package and its individual components to equip 25…

This investigation examined the effects of video modeling on the fine and gross motor task performance by three students with a diagnosis of moderate intellectual disability (Group 1) and by three students with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (Group 2). Using a multiple probe design across three sets of tasks, the study examined the…

Experimental procedures for modification of cognitive impulsivity in handicapped children (including required delay, direct instruction, self-verbalization, differentiation training, modeling, and reinforcement) are reviewed and their respective teaching implications identified. (BD)
