Developing Math Automaticity Using a Classwide Fluency Building Procedure for Middle School Students: A Preliminary Study
Axtell, Philip K.; McCallum, R. Steve; Bell, Sherry Mee; Poncy, Brian
Psychology in the Schools, v46 n6 p526-538 Jul 2009
To investigate the influence of an innovative math fluency intervention, 36 middle-school students were randomly assigned to either an experimental (the Detect, Practice, Repair [DPR]) or control condition (reading intervention). After covarying pretest scores, the DPR treatment produced a significantly higher (p = 0.016) adjusted mean (M) math score (M = 47.53, standard deviation [SD] = 3.26) for the intervention group when compared to the control group (M = 33.31, SD = 4.39). The intervention is described so that teachers and consulting school psychologists can implement the steps for individuals or groups (e.g., in a multitiered response to intervention model).
