UT Math SPIRAL uses a math professional learning-coaching model to focus its efforts on Austin ISD educators, with the goal of accelerating math gains for all students post-pandemic. SPIRAL supports educators of Grades 4 and 5 students who experience math difficulty. These educators include special education teachers, general education teachers, math specialists, interventionists, and paraprofessionals.
We work collaboratively with these educators to
+ increase their use of evidence-based practices and interventions,
+ improve their implementation effectiveness of small-group math intervention, and
+ accelerate post-pandemic math gains for their students with or at-risk for disabilities.
