Educators need evidence-based practices to assist students with disabilities in meeting increasingly rigorous standards in mathematics. Students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are increasingly expected to demonstrate learning of basic and advanced mathematical concepts. This review identifies math intervention studies involving children and adolescents with ASD and describes participant characteristics, methodological features, interventions, target behaviors, and related outcomes. Included studies met the design standards of the What Works Clearinghouse (2014). Studies focused on functional and computational skills for students with a comorbid diagnosis of intellectual disability (ID). Visual analysis confirmed a functional relation between evaluated interventions and mathematics outcomes in 71% of cases. Interventions generally yielded moderate to large effect sizes. Large confidence intervals were obtained across effects. More high-quality research including students with higher-functioning ASD is required to fully address the needs of this population.
Practitioners are increasingly expected to provide reading instruction to students with intellectual disabilities to help them become literate. Whereas explicit, systematic reading instruction is effective at preventing reading difficulties for most young children, its effectiveness for children with intellectual disabilities remains unclear. The study's purpose was to explore this issue by identifying important child characteristics predictive of differential growth in targeted reading skills in response to a reading intervention that targeted phonological awareness, letter sound knowledge, and reading of decodable, sight, and nonsense words. One‐on‐one instruction was provided to 24 children with Down syndrome between the ages of 7 and 16 years. Results indicate that a majority of children demonstrated statistically significant growth on letter sounds, taught sight words, and decodable words. Children with Down syndrome who entered the study with more advanced word identification skills made greater gains in decodable word reading; those with more advanced phoneme segmentation skills made greater gains in nonsense word reading. Overall, findings suggest that incorporating elements of explicit, systematic reading instruction into interventions for children with Down syndrome may be beneficial for many.

[Podcast: http://www.voiceofliteracy.org/posts/38301.] 从业人员日益被期望能为智障学生提供阅读教学,发展他们读写能力。明示的、系统性的阅读教学对大部分年幼学童来说,能有效地预防阅读上的困难,但对于智障童来说,其成效尚未明确。本研究旨在通过识别重要的学童特性去探究上述问题。这些学童特性可预测学童在一项阅读技巧干预教学中的个别成绩差异。该项干预教学针对施教语音意识、字母读音知识,以及可解码字词的阅读、常用字词的阅读及没有意义字词的阅读。教师为24名7至16岁患有唐氏综合症的学童提供一对一的阅读教学。研究结果显示,大部分的学童在字母读音、已教授过的常用字词及可解码的字词阅读能力方面,均有显著增长。那些在参加本研究前已具有较高级单词识别技巧的唐氏综合症学童,在阅读可解码的字词方面有较大的进步;而那些具有较高级音素分割技能的,则在阅读没有意义的字词方面有较大的进步。整体而言,本研究结果表明,把明示的、系统性的阅读教学元素...
