Kelly. Mathematics Interventions: What Strategies Work for Struggling Learners or Students With Learning Disabilities? In a search of evidence-based materials from research organizations, we found several resources that are written for teachers and other practitioners. These resources have the following strategies in common: providing systematic and explicit instruction; teaching visual representation of functions and relationships, such as manipulatives, pictures, and graphs; providing peer-assisted instruction; and using ongoing, formative assessment.
Other strategies are listed as well in these publications. The Best Evidence Encyclopedia from Johns Hopkins University, which reviews mathematics programs and case studies of schools, is another useful resource that we’ve provided below. These are just a few of the resources available that are in the public domain. The Ask A REL service can also provide additional peer-reviewed, full-text studies or articles on this and other topics. Misunderstood Minds . Mathematics. MathVIDS! Home. Welcome to MathVIDS! A Resource for Teaching Mathematics to Struggling Learners MathVIDS is an interactive website for teachers who are teaching mathematics to struggling learners made possible through funding by the Virginia Department of Education. The primary theme of MathVIDS is to help educators connect why struggling learners have difficutly learning matheamtics to effective instructional practices for these students.
Use the navigation menus and links at the top of the page to explore the MathVIDS website and find information and resources pertinent to your interests and needs or click on "site index " at the top right hand corner for a quick overview of the website. Important features of MathVIDS include: For additional description/explanation of MathVIDS click any of the titles below: Effective Mathematics Instruction.
