Ross, Amanda A.; Onwuegbuzie, Anthony J. – Mathematics Educator, 2012
In wake of federal legislation such as the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 that have called for "scientifically based research in education," this study examined the possible trends in mixed methods research articles published in 2 peer-reviewed mathematics education journals (n = 87) from 2002 to 2006. The study also illustrates how…

Riera, Karla Rene – ProQuest LLC, 2013
Though the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 requires secondary students with Asperger's syndrome (AS) to take high-stakes mathematical tests, many students with AS exhibit weaknesses in mathematical and executive functioning skills. The purpose of this mixed-methods case study was to explore the use of differentiated mathematical strategies with…

Mulcahy, Candace A.; Krezmien, Michael; Maccini, Paula – Preventing School Failure, 2014
While the Common Core State Standards and state learning standards guide teachers in what mathematical content knowledge should be addressed as well as the processes and proficiencies necessary for developing mathematical competence, several student- and teacher-related factors may hinder student access to the general education curriculum for…

Hoerr, Thomas R. – Educational Leadership, 2016
How important is it that every student in a school is excited about learning? Should a student be allowed to use all his/her strengths in learning? Do you know someone who wasn't a particularly good student but has been very successful in life? What these seemingly unrelated questions have in common is an appreciation for the range of talents that…

Jitendra, Asha K.; Star, Jon R. – Theory Into Practice, 2011
This article discusses schema-based instruction (SBI) as an alternative to traditional instruction for enhancing the mathematical problem solving performance of students with learning disabilities (LD). In the authors' most recent research and developmental efforts, they designed SBI to meet the needs of middle school students with LD in inclusive…

Foster, Ilene S. – ProQuest LLC, 2010
For the past decade, students at California State University (CSU) campuses increasingly lack basic mathematics skills. To address this concern, Executive Order No. 665 (1998) called for CSU campuses to bring students to proficiency in mathematics. School districts have struggled to modify their mathematics curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment in…

Tretter, Thomas R. – Gifted Child Today, 2010
Developing appropriate curriculum to challenge gifted students can be difficult, whether in a mixed-ability classroom or in a self-contained gifted classroom. Four potential ways that a curriculum can be modified for gifted students have been suggested: (1) acceleration; (2) enrichment; (3) sophistication; and (4) novelty. This article proposes…

Larson, Matthew R.; Leinwand, Steven – Mathematics Teacher, 2013
Educators in forty-five states and the District of Columbia are hard at work interpreting and implementing the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) (CCSSI 2010). This work typically involves teacher participation in professional development activities focused on developing an understanding of the content standards as well as the…

Tate. William F., IV – SERVE Center for Continuous Improvement at UNCG, 2005
This monograph represents an effort to build upon and extend beyond the literature on school mathematics as discussed in "Mathematics and Science: Critical Filters for the Future." Three significant changes in the political and educational landscape since 1985 are discussed. The first change is the introduction of mathematics standards…

Schwab, James Raymond; Tucci, Stacey; Jolivette, Kristine – Beyond Behavior, 2013
With the advent of No Child Left Behind (2002), the academic expectations of students with disabilities have changed. Students with disabilities are now held to the same academic standards as their peers without disabilities. Furthermore, the 2004 provisions in the Individuals With Disabilities Education Improvement Act state that students with…

McAllister, Brook Anne; Plourde, Lee A. – Education, 2008
Research shows that mathematically gifted students learn differently from their same age group peers. They require curriculum to be differentiated to meet their specific learning styles (Johnson, 2000). Studies have shown that formal instruction in elementary school classrooms often lacks challenge for the gifted learner since courses in regular…

Bye, Shari L. – ProQuest LLC, 2011
"In the three decades since the 1980 publication of An Agenda for Action, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) has consistently advocated a coherent prekindergarten through grade 12 mathematics curriculum focused on mathematical problem solving" (NCTM, 2009, p. xi). Despite a call for secondary mathematics students to…

Ellis, Mark W. – Teachers College Record, 2008
Background/Context: For the past century, mathematics education in the United States has been effective at producing outcomes mirroring society's historical inequities. The enactment of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2001 was intended to address these differential educational outcomes. Given the scope of this legislation's impact on the way in…

Ronis, Diane L. – Corwin Press, 2006
Students' brains are wired to make them natural, curious learners. The mathematical world around them offers a vast classroom, filled with shapes, spaces, quantities, and experiences to discover and explore, all leading to the construction of understanding. Teachers can use this natural curiosity to tap the inborn neural mechanisms that motivate…

Gresham, Gina – Issues in the Undergraduate Mathematics Preparation of School Teachers, 2010
Fifty-two exceptional education pre-service teachers getting a K-6 endorsement were involved in this study that investigated the changes in levels of mathematics anxiety before and after a mathematics methods course for education majors. The changes were measured with respect to the use of manipulatives and other activities to make mathematics…
