| dc.description.abstract | Early numeracy skills are vital for kindergarten students because they are predictive of later success in school. Unfortunately, many kindergarteners enter school with numeracy skills that fall below national standards, and our youngest learners begin school with an achievement gap in mathematics that widens over time. Intervening early on kindergarteners at-risk for poor mathematics learning outcomes is a promising approach to address this achievement gap. ROOTS is a small group evidence-based, early numeracy intervention that focuses on whole number development for at-risk learners. The current study explores the feasibility, acceptability, and impact of ROOTS with remote professional development in a small-scale randomized controlled trial. Findings indicate that interventionists receiving remote support for implementing ROOTS found training and coaching to be sufficient to deploy an early numeracy intervention, and strong implementation fidelity was consistent with previous research on ROOTS. Further, children who received the ROOTS intervention outperformed their control group peers on post-test measures of mathematics achievement. Outcomes and implications for using remote professional development as a format for supporting educators in their use of early numeracy intervention programs are discussed. | en_US |
