who benefits?
all students can gain insights from the implementation of visual representation in the math classroom, but VRs can be especially helpful for:
STUDENTS WHO STRUGGLE WITH PROBLEM SOLVING
Students who had instruction on and access to VRs are more likely to solve real-world problems accurately. This is true for at-risk, low- achieving, and average-achieving.
STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DIABILITIES
These students often create inaccurate mental representations of quantities or relationships, so guidance and examples of accurate VRs show great improvement in mathematical reasoning.
