Reconceptualizing Mathematics Problem Solving for Low-Achieving Students

Brian A. Bottge

University of Wisconsin-Madison, bbottge{at}education.wisc.edu

Over the past century, learning theorists have advised researchers and practitioners on ways to improve student math performance. Available evidence suggests that these messages are mostly undelivered or unaccepted, or both, especially as they pertain to students who are unsuccessful in school. One of the reasons for the disconnection may be confusion about how learning theory can help identify suitable ways of delivering mathematics instruction to special populations. Based on a review of the literature in general education and special education, this article proposes a key model for teaching math to at-risk students. Implications of the model for research and instruction are explored.
