Point-of-view video modeling effectively taught math problem-solving skills to high school students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Participants improved accuracy in solving mixed fraction word problems, with gains maintained at follow-up.
Area of Science:
- Educational Psychology
- Special Education
- Applied Behavior Analysis
Background:
- Mathematics word problem-solving is a critical skill.
- Students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often face challenges with complex mathematical concepts.
- Targeted interventions are needed to support mathematical learning in students with ASD.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the efficacy of a point-of-view video modeling intervention.
- To teach mathematics problem-solving skills related to subtracting mixed fractions with uncommon denominators.
- To assess the intervention's impact on students with ASD.
Main Methods:
- Employed a multiple-probe across students single-case research design.
- Included three high school students diagnosed with ASD.
- Utilized point-of-view video modeling for instruction.
Main Results:
- All participants showed significant improvements in solving mixed fraction word problems.
- Accuracy in mathematical problem-solving increased post-intervention.
- Skill acquisition was maintained at a 1-week follow-up assessment.
Conclusions:
- Point-of-view video modeling is an effective intervention for teaching math problem-solving to students with ASD.
- The intervention successfully addressed challenges with subtracting mixed fractions.
- Video modeling offers a promising approach for supporting academic skills in special education settings.
