An investigation of Detect, Practice, and Repair to remedy math‐fact deficits in a group of third‐grade students

Abstract

Abstract A multiple‐probe‐across‐problem‐sets (tasks) design was used to evaluate the effects of the Detect, Practice, and Repair (DPR) on multiplication‐fact fluency development in seven third‐grade students nominated by their teacher as needing remediation. DPR is a multicomponent intervention and begins with a group‐administered, metronome‐paced assessment used to identify specific facts in need of repair. Next, Cover, Copy, and Compare (CCC) procedures are used to enhance automaticity with those specific facts. Lastly, students complete a 1‐min speed drill and self‐graph their fluency performance. Results showed large level and trend increases in fact fluency after DPR was applied across all three sets of multiplication problems. Discussion focuses on the importance of developing effective and efficient basic‐skill‐remediation procedures and directions for future research. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
