The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a first-grade mathematics intervention called Fusion aimed at developing understanding of whole numbers for students at risk for mathematics learning disabilities.
Whole Number Foundations (The FUSION Project) is a Goal 2 Development and Innovation project focused on developing a 60-lesson, print-based (Tier 2) intervention in mathematics. The FUSION intervention is designed to teach whole number concepts to first grade students who are at risk for mathematics difficulties.
The postdoctoral training program supports and trains postdoctoral fellows with expertise in research design and implementation, applied content expertise, and methodology and data analysis. Each cohort of postdoctoral fellows is funded for two years and is immersed in CTL-managed research projects.
The purpose of this project is to expand the Individual Growth and Development Indicators (IGDI) suite of psychometrically robust measures for Spanish-speaking dual language learners (DLLs) by developing and validating measures for 3-year-olds.
Interdisciplinary Interventionists and Clinicians Improving Outcomes (INICIO) will train 42 Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) and Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) master's students at the University of Oregon to serve dual language learners (DLLs) from birth through age 5 with disabilities.
This project focuses on identifying features of effective methods that caregivers (parents, grandparents, etc.) use to promote children's math understanding in informal learning environments, such as the home, libraries, and other learning spaces.
The i3 project is designed to test the impact of a two-year intervention on the mathematics achievement of at-risk students, and ensure a successful transition in mathematics across the pre-kindergarten to kindergarten school years.
KinderTEK is a Goal 2 Development and Innovation project to construct a technology-based mathematics intervention for use in kindergarten.The intervention is focused on using tablet technology (iPads) to teach critical concepts of whole number to kindergartners who are at risk for difficulties in mathematics.
Overall The long-range objectives of the Florida Learning Disabilities Research Center are to use a multidisciplinary, multimethod, and multi-level approach to (a) substantially increase replicable knowledge about the nature of learning disabilities; (b) implement this knowledge in tools that potentially can improve the outcomes of individuals with
