Cho, Eunsoo; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Seethaler, Pamela M.; Fuchs, Douglas; Compton, Donald L. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2020
We examined dynamic assessment's (DA's) added value over traditional assessments for identifying Spanish-speaking English learners' (ELs) risk for developing mathematics disabilities, as a function of the language of test administration (English vs. Spanish), type of math outcome, and EL's language dominance. At the start of first grade, ELs (N =…

Wu, Sheng-Yi – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2020
During collaborative learning in online learning communities, teachers usually guide their students through the learning process by means of discussion-based didactics. According to relevant research, an uncontrolled, nonintrusive discussion environment is usually insufficient for promoting higher cognitive processing (HCP). To address this…
