Description
Summary:Mathematical writing (MW) can support students’ mathematical learning and is common in mathematics assessment. However, MW is known to be particularly challenging for students with learning disabilities. While the use of model compositions of both high- and low-quality writing and the act of revision are evidence-based practices in writing instruction, models of MW are not readily available in the curriculum, and many teachers struggle to compose high-quality MW themselves. Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots are increasingly accessible for teachers and provide one avenue by which MW models can be readily generated. This column guides educators on utilizing AI chatbots to produce MW models to support MW instruction for students with learning disabilities.
