Dyscalculia in a formula

Posted on by

This research aimed to formulate a model of mathematical learning difficulties for children with dyscalculia to help children with dyscalculia overcome mathematics problems at school. This research is important to carry out considering that dyscalculia is a serious problem experienced by many students throughout the world.

What interventions work best with Dyscalculia?

Posted on by

Developmental dyscalculia (DD) affects 2-6% of the population. Yet, a
readily accessible list of potential interventions for DD is not available or
can be easily found by educators. With a large percentage of the population
afflicted with DD, educators should be made aware of what supportive
approaches are available. The purpose of this study was to construct a lit
erature review to locate and identify strategies tailored for this particular
learning disability that can be used in the classroom. Results indicated that
a total of seven evidence-based interventions are available for DD. Of the
seven available options, all reported evidence of effectiveness in terms of
helping to improve mathematical learning abilities for individuals. The
need for future research into interventions for DD will assist students
in improving their understanding of how they can handle mathematical
tasks.
