Download or read book Effects of Explicit Strategic Teacher Directed Instruction with IPad Application Practice on the Multiplication Fact Performance of 5th Grade Students with Learning Disabilities written by Min Wook Ok and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is critical that students develop computational skills with basic facts to attain more advanced mathematical skills (e.g., algebra and fractions). A limited ability in accuracy and fluency with basic facts by students with learning disabilities (LD) who have Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals in mathematics can hinder their performance with more advanced mathematical skills. Thus, it is imperative to provide effective instruction to help students with LD to improve their basic fact skills. Explicit, strategic instruction has been highly recommended as an effective method for helping students with LD to improve basic fact skills. In addition, recent studies reported tablet computers such as iPads have potential for teaching basic fact skills. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of explicit, strategic teacher-directed instruction with iPad application practice on the multiplication fact performance of 5th grade students with LD. A single-case, multiple probe design across participants was applied for this study. Four 5th grade students with LD who had IEP goals in mathematics received fifteen 1:1 intervention sessions in multiplication facts (×4s and ×8s). Digits correct per minute in daily probes, use of a doubling strategy in strategy usage tests, and perspectives of students toward the intervention were measured. Results showed that all students improved their performance with multiplication fact proficiency; one student achieved the mastery level while the three other students approached mastery. All students also maintained the intervention gains, two weeks following the intervention. Additional findings showed that students increased their use of the doubling strategy to solve facts and were able to answer facts automatically following the intervention. Social validity interviews revealed that the intervention was viewed favorably by all students by their expression of positive perspectives toward using the doubling strategy and an iPad application to practice.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Solve It! strategy instruction included sequenced scripted lessons through which elementary school students with learning disabilities are explicitly taught how to utilize cognitive routine and self-regulation approaches in the context of mathematics problem-solving. In addition, to reduce potential inert knowledge problem, decrease the anxiety, and motivate students in learning process, iPad/laptop was applied in the Solve It! strategy during the intervention. The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of iPad with Solve It! strategy on one-step change problem-solving of students with learning disabilities in 5th grade. A multiple-probe across subject design was used for this study. Three elementary school students with learning disabilities were recruited in experimental sessions (baseline, pre-intervention, intervention and maintenance phases) throughout a 13 weeks period. During the intervention phase, Once the first student reached 60% accuracy on schemas 1 and 2 (i.e., end unknown addition and end unknown subtraction) on mathematical computation test, the first student started to be intervened in schemas 2 and 3. The same procedure continued to the last two schemas. Participants moved to the maintenance phase when a minimum of two data points at or above 60% accuracy on mathematical computation test during the intervention. The findings revealed that the three participants’ performance significantly improved after they received Solve It! strategy. All three students achieved scores that exceeded the mastery level (60% accuracy) on the mathematical computation test during the intervention and maintenance phases. In addition, 100% of non-overlapping data for all of three participants showed significant changes on accuracy performance on one-step change problems after they receive Solve It! strategy instruction. The social validity data that examined student perspectives and satisfaction on iPad/laptiop with the Solve It! strategy showed the participants’ perspectives that Solve It! strategy was helpful to improve their one-step change problems performances and revealed the individuals’ positive attitude on their learning experience during the intervention

Book excerpt: This approach to teaching basic math facts, grounded in years of research, will transform students' learning of basic facts and help them become more confident, adept, and successful at math. Mastering the basic facts for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is an essential goal for all students. Most educators also agree that success at higher levels of math hinges on this fundamental skill. But what's the best way to get there? Are flash cards, drills, and timed tests the answer? If so, then why do students go into the upper elementary grades (and beyond) still counting on their fingers or experiencing math anxiety? What does research say about teaching basic math facts so they will stick? In Math Fact Fluency, experts Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling provide the answers to these questions—and so much more. This book offers everything a teacher needs to teach, assess, and communicate with parents about basic math fact instruction, including The five fundamentals of fact fluency, which provide a research-based framework for effective instruction in the basic facts. Strategies students can use to find facts that are not yet committed to memory. More than 40 easy-to-make, easy-to-use games that provide engaging fact practice. More than 20 assessment tools that provide useful data on fact fluency and mastery. Suggestions and strategies for collaborating with families to help their children master the basic math facts.

Download or read book Learning Within a Computer assisted Instructional Environment written by Loraine Jones Hanson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of basic multiplication mastery (0-12) and self-efficacy outcomes for elementary age students attempting to master multiplication facts in a Computer-Assisted Instructional (CAI) environment. Timez Attack (TA), a modern Internet based 3-D multiplication video game, was the computer program used in this study. Four third- and four fourth-grade classes of students at a public charter school received either 12 20-minute Teacher-Led Instructional (TLI), or TA multiplication practice sessions. Pre- and post Math Attitude Survey (MAS), timed multiplication tests, observations, and informal interviews were used to assess and compare TA and TLI's learning environments, performance, and self-efficacy outcomes. Both third- and fourth-grade TA students' level of multiplication mastery improved significantly after intervention. Results from the post-MAS also revealed significantly higher self-efficacy beliefs, and reduced nervousness in learning multiplication facts amongst some TA students. Statistical data analysis revealed no significant performance outcome differences between TLI and TA third-grade classes; however, post-test comparisons between fourth-grade TLI and TA students showed TA students significantly outperforming their comparison group counterparts by answering approximately 50% more problems in a given time and feeling significantly less nervous toward learning new multiplication math facts. The TA program's motivational, self-paced, and self-evaluative features seemed to produce a positive learning environment, which encouraged student learning. Educators should consider using CAI with features similar to TA's to improve students' academic performance and self-efficacy.

Download or read book The Use of Incremental Rehearsal in Improving Multiplication Fact Fluency for Three Middle School Students with Learning Disabilities written by Jane Therese Mathes and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Math fact fluency is a critical aspect of becoming proficient in the area of mathematics. This study was designed to determine whether incremental rehearsal of basic multiplication facts had an effect on the fact fluency of middle school students with learning disabilities. The researcher used a multiple baseline across subjects design to determine the effect of incremental rehearsal on fact fluency for three seventh-grade students with learning disabilities. To measure fact fluency, the researcher created a curriculum-based assessment. The participants took a two-minute multiplication test consisting of 80 single-digit facts using factors of 1-9 weekly. Visual inspection of the data was used to analyze the results. The data was graphed with both median and trend lines. The results of the data analysis indicated that prediction, verification, and replication did not occur, thus the results of the study did not demonstrate a functional relationship between the independent variable, incremental rehearsal and the dependent variable, fact fluency. Without further research, this study brings into question the effectiveness of incremental rehearsal for middle school students with learning disabilities.
