Supporting Students with Disabilities in Mathematics Classrooms


TeachSIM has partnered with researchers from Boston University, the University of Delaware, and the University of Virginia to develop a suite of materials, including simulations, to better prepare elementary preservice teachers to support students with disabilities in mathematics lessons.
This work is essential for many reasons, including the following:
Through this partnership, our teams will aim to meet this challenge by developing a suite of of portable and scalable curricular materials, simulations, and coaching supports. We will be able to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of these materials through randomized control trials across several teacher education programs.
Data collection for this study will occur throughout the 2022-2023 academic year across sites.
