The Taped Problems Intervention: Increasing the Math Fact Fluency of a Student with an Intellectual Disability

The Taped Problems intervention is an evidence-based practice that involves a self-monitored, audio-recording procedure in which students follow along with automated recordings of math facts and their solutions. A multiple-probes-across-tasks design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the Taped Problems intervention on the division-fact fluency of an eighth-grade student with an intellectual disability. Results indicated immediate and sustained increases in the student's division-fact fluency across sets of problems. Discussion focuses on the practical implications of the results, limitations of the current investigation, and directions for future studies. (Contains 1 figure.)
