Learn why students struggle with math
Math is a subject that often builds on itself,
and students who struggle can get lost
quickly. Teachers know these students are
trying their best, but large class sizes and
a fast-paced curriculum mean they often
turn to you for answers and assistance.
Research shows that multiple brain
regions are involved in computational
processing and conceptual understanding
of math.
The FAM is the only math assessment tool
that identifies the cause of students’ math
difficulties using a brain-based approach.
It yields three index scores representing three types of dyscalculia (verbal,
procedural, and semantic) as well as a
Total Index score that represents total
test performance. It identifies specific
math strengths and weaknesses to help
you develop customized interventions.
Dig even deeper with built-in skills, error, and
behavior analyses that pinpoint problem
areas so you can get students back on track
and keep them on pace with their peers.
