SUMMARY:TIDES Talk: Essential Consideration for Math Intervention with Sarah R. Powell
DESCRIPTION:Many students experience difficulty with math and benefit from targeted math intervention. In the latest talk in the Project TIDES seminar series\, Sarah R. Powell from the University of Texas will focus on math trajectories for students and five research-validated practices that are essential for the design and delivery of math intervention. \nProject TIDES (Teaching and Inclusion for Disability Equity in STEM) is an innovative postdoctoral training program funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation providing early-career scholars with mentoring and professional development that centers the full inclusion of all persons in science\, technology\, engineering and mathematics (STEM) learning and work. The talk will take place via Zoom. \nSarah R. Powell is a professor in the College of Education at The University of Texas at Austin and associate director of the Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk. Her research\, teaching and service focus on mathematics\, particularly for students who experience mathematics differently. \nPowell is currently principal investigator (PI) of an Institute of Education Sciences (IES) efficacy grant (RAAMPS) related to word-problem solving at Grade 4. Powell is also PI of SPIRAL\, an IES grant which works collaboratively with Grade 4 and 5 teachers who provide mathematics instruction to students with mathematics difficulty. Powell is Co-PI of STAIR 2.0 (funded by IES) in which the team works with middle school special education math teachers and SCALE and SCALE-UP (funded by the U.S. Department of Education) in which the team is replicating a fraction intervention in Grades 4-8. Powell collaborates on Math Words\, an IES development grant about mathematics vocabulary. To help create the next generation of researchers focused on mathematics\, Powell is PI of a doctoral leadership grant (LIME) funded by the Office of Special Education Programs. Powell was awarded the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2019. \nPowell understands all of these efforts are a team effort\, and she thanks her project leads\, graduate students\, research assistants and research collaborators as well as the teachers and students who participate in these projects.
