The Effects Of Video Self-Modeling On The Math Performance Of Adolescents With Developmental Disabilities, Cami Elizabeth Burton
The Effects Of Video Self-Modeling On The Math Performance Of Adolescents With Developmental Disabilities, Cami Elizabeth Burton
Theses and Dissertations
The current study examined the effects of video self-modeling (VSM) via an iPad on the mathematics performance of students with developmental disabilities. The learning task was presented from the consumers' point of view; students learned to estimate the amount of money they should use to pay for a given item and the amount they should receive back to help ensure that they are treated honestly by merchants. Through VSM, video clips showing the step-by-step problem solving process were synchronized onto an iPad. Students were shown how to use the iPad and access the video clips in order to watch themselves …
Effects Of After School Programs On Elementary School Students' Language Arts And Mathematics Achievement, Jennifer Lynn Presnell
Effects Of After School Programs On Elementary School Students' Language Arts And Mathematics Achievement, Jennifer Lynn Presnell
Theses and Dissertations
This study evaluated after school program participation on student academic achievement as a way of helping schools meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) standards set by the No Child Left Behind Act. After school programs were divided into academic after school programs and traditional after school programs. Student achievement was measured through Criterion Referenced Tests in Language Arts and Mathematics. This study took place in a small urban school district located in the Intermountain West. Students in after school programs were matched with students not participating in the programs on several background characteristics including socioeconomic status, English language proficiency status, school …

Like most tribal colleges, Chief Dull Knife College (CDKC, Lame Deer, MT) offers a sequence of pre-college mathematics courses - Basic Mathematics, Introductory Algebra, and Intermediate Algebra - to assist students who lack college-level skills. To enhance student support, CDKC created the Student Learning Center, which is started by instructors and student interns and offers computer work stations.

Another Cautionary Note On Interpreting Regression Results In Family Research: A Comment On Peterson And Gerson (1992), Alan J. Hawkins, Joseph A. Olsen, Richard R. Peterson, Kathleen Gerson

Occasionally in the family literature we receive reminders to be cautious about our interpretations of regressions results (e.g., Glenn & Kramer, 1985; Glenn & Shelton, 1983). After all, regression results are stated in the language of mathematics. We must be careful when we translate from the language of mathematics, which is blind to the human situation being represented by the numbers, into language that is meaningful in the human context. This brief not critiques the interpretation of regression results in an article by Peterson and Gerson (1992) that appeared in a recent issue of the Journal of Marriage and the …
