Examining Fraction Performance and Learning Trajectories in Students with Learning Disabilities
Digital game-based interventions have shown promise in improving STEM engagement and conceptual understanding among elementary students. This study focuses on how a game-enhanced, whole-class mathematics intervention influences the fraction performance and conceptual development of students with learning disabilities (LDs). Using a triangulated mixed methods design, we analyzed pre- and post-intervention data from students in intervention and com…
Effects of Game-Enhanced Supplemental Fraction Curriculum on Student Engagement, Fraction Knowledge, and STEM Interest
People with disabilities are underrepresented in STEM as well as information, communication, and technology (ICT) careers. The underrepresentation of individuals with disabilities in STEM may reflect systemic issues of access. Curricular materials that allow students to demonstrate their current fraction knowledge through multiple means and provide opportunities to share and explain their thinking with others may address issues of access students…
Elementary Teachers’ Perceptions and Enactment of Supplemental, Game-Enhanced Fraction Intervention
Curricula enhanced through the use of digital games can benefit students in their interest and learning of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) concepts. Elementary teachers’ likelihood to embrace and use game-enhanced instructional approaches with integrity in mathematics has not been extensively studied. In this study, a sequential mixed methods design was employed to investigate the feasibility of a game-enhanced supplement…
Teacher Beliefs and Perspectives of Practice
Efforts to improve teachers’ knowledge of tools and strategies are often intertwined with their beliefs regarding mathematics teaching and learning. Yet, few studies have examined the impact of professional development designed to bolster teachers’ knowledge of and beliefs about young children’s mathematical development. In this study, we evaluated whether participants’ beliefs changed significantly after engaging in online professional learning …
Chinese Preschool Children’s Home Numeracy Experiences and their Mathematical Abilities
The purpose of the present study was to examine the association between Chinese preschool children’s home numeracy experiences and their mathematical abilities. The parents of 515 4- to 5-year-old preschool children reported their frequency of participation in home numeracy activities, and the children were assessed on their math ability. The results revealed that the parents engaged in both formal and informal math activities at home. Family soc…
Documenting increased participation of a student with autism in the standards for mathematical practice
The Common Core State Standards articulate expectations for student participation in mathematical reasoning, sense making, and discussion. Yet little to no research explores the participation of students with autism in these practices. Drawing on neurodiversity and situated sociocultural theory, this article offers a case study of the mathematics engagement of Oscar, a fifth-grade student with autism, over the duration of 1 school year. Using fie…
