Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different instructional types used in a mathematics intervention setting. In recent years, school staff have implemented mathematics intervention programs to aid struggling students and improve student achievement. Advancements in technology have enticed many school staff to purchase computer-based instructional products that are used for mathematics intervention. Often computer-assisted instruction (CAI) is the only mathematics intervention students receive, however staff in the school of this study used a structured curriculum (SC) along with CAI Therefore, this study examined the effects of CAI compared to a SC delivered by a teacher. This study used a three-group pre/post-test design, which examined the effects of CAI, SC, and CAI with SC on mathematics achievement and students' attitudes towards mathematics. The follow research questions guided data analyses: 1) Is there a significant instructional type effect on mathematics achievement? 2) Is there a significant instructional type effect on mathematics attitude? 3) What is the factor structure of mathematics attitude scores of struggling learners? Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed no statistically significant instructional type effects on mathematics achievement or attitude towards mathematics. However, factor analyses of pre-survey attitude scores revealed a factor structure different from the one found in current research. Meanwhile, factor analyses of post attitude survey scores resulted in a factor structure resembling that found in current literature, which suggested a shift in struggling students' mathematics attitude structures after they participated in mathematics intervention. The results of this study provided information about how school leaders and administrators can design and implement mathematics intervention programs as well as the role of CAI in intervention programs. Additionally, lapses in fidelity of program implementation may have influenced results of the study and provide recommendations for teacher professional development and monitoring in order to maintain high levels of fidelity when implementing an intervention program. Finally, the results of this study suggested that struggling learners' attitude structure might be different than that of students in the larger population. The researcher discussed implications these differences may have on the design of mathematics intervention programs.

Book excerpt: Past research has documented that the effectiveness of three different math strategies delivered to students via one-on-one instruction (i.e., cover-copy-compare (CCC); e.g., Skinner, Turco, Beatty, & Rasavage, 1989, traditional drill and practice (TDP); e.g., Cybriwsky & Schuster, 1990, and constant time delay (CTD); Kulik, 1994). This study examined the effects of these three strategies that were delivered via a computer (i.e., computer assisted instruction, CAI) on first-grade students' mathematics performance. Addition skills for numbers that sum to 10 or less served as the target mathematics area. Variables of interest included: accuracy as measured by number of problems completed correctly, fluency as measured by digits correct per minute, average latency to respond as measured by time taken for the student to respond divided by the number of problems attempted within the CAI program, and number of learning trials as measured by number of opportunities to respond to presented stimuli. Pre- and post-test addition probes were examined on two variables, accuracy, and fluency. Teacher and student acceptability were assessed using rating forms. Further, follow-up probes were administered at one-week and one-month following the completion of the computer program to assess fluency and accuracy generalization and maintenance from keyboard typed responses to written responses. Results indicated no statistically significant between group differences on the instructional variables of interest examined during the CAI program. Further, no statistically significant between group differences were found on accuracy and fluency scores on the post-test, one-week and one-month follow-up probes. Students generally found computer procedures acceptable. In addition, there were no differences found on the measure between the CAI groups. Teacher ratings suggested a preference toward TDP and CTD procedures over CCC procedures. Possible explanations for these results, implications of the findings, and avenues for future research are discussed.

Book excerpt: In today’s increasingly technologically-driven classroom, exploring whether computer-assisted instruction ensures students gain critical mathematic skills is an important area of study. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of computer-assisted instruction in learning manipulation of fractions. This study used archival data collected in August 2021 (pre-test) and January 2022 (post-test). Sixty-nine fifth-grade students in a middle school in rural Mississippi were participants in the study. This quantitative quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test control group design analyzed data from the i-Ready diagnostic using an Analysis of Covariance. Results indicated a significant difference between the post-test scores of students who received interventions and those who did not receive interventions when controlling for the pre-test scores. Results indicated that computer-based interventions have a significant impact on student learning. Further research is recommended to explore the impact across grade levels.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematics is essential in everyday life activities and most educational opportunities and careers require mathematical knowledge, thus it is vital that students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) receive sufficient instruction that leads to proficiency in the subject. Performing poorly in mathematics can result in dire future outcomes. This is particularly true for students with EBD, who already experience significant difficulties throughout and after their educational career. While studies have documented the academic and behavioral problems of students with EBD, not until recently have studies begun to concentrate on academic interventions that may aid in preventing some of the academic challenges these students face. It is of great importance that researchers continue to identify effective and efficient strategies of providing academic instruction, particularly in mathematics, to students with EBD. The current study examined the extent to which a technology-based intervention was effective in math instruction for students with EBD. In addition, to address the social/behavioral issues typically prevalent in students with EBD, students' task engagement was also examined and a social validity survey was used to examine their attitudes toward mathematics and technology-based instruction. A single-subject multiple-probe design across six participants was selected for this study. The computer-assisted instruction (CAI) intervention, I CAN Learn computer software program, was implemented in a high school mathematics classroom. The overall results of the study indicated that the intervention improved the adolescents' mathematics achievement, but findings revealed that the intervention was more effective with some participants than others. In addition, results indicated that the intervention may not be associated with the participants' task engagement. The study's social validity survey showed that the participants had varying attitudes toward mathematics and CAI at the end of the study.

This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quasi-experimental study examined the effect of supplemental mathematics computer-assisted instructional programs on the achievement of students in grades three and four over a two year period. This study evaluates the computer-assisted instruction (CAI) supplemental interventions through the lens of the sheltered instruction approach to teaching English Language Learner (ELL) students. The students who took part in the intervention attended nine elementary schools in one Arkansas district in the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 school years. Data from Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) assessments were analyzed using a factorial ANOVA with pretest and two posttests over the course of two school years. Data variables included ELL status and method of instruction CAI v Traditional Instruction (TI). This study sought to determine the impact CAI programs had on the math MAP RIT scores of third and fourth grade students in the district. Both ELL and non-ELL students were included in the study to determine if the CAI programs were more successful with either group. Results indicated that use of CAI does not exact significantly different math achievement scores than TI alone, according to math MAP RIT scores. Results were analyzed using an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures for two different factors. The TIME*ELL*CAI interaction was not significant, however, the main effect of group (ELL) was significant, as was the effect of time. Post hoc contrasts found that math scores for all groups at the follow up sessions were significantly higher than scores observed at baseline.
