Abstract
The present study investigated the effectiveness of a constant time delay procedure in teaching multiplication facts to fifth- and sixth-grade students identified as learning disabled, behavior disordered, or educable mentally handicapped. Four students were taught oral responses to 30 multiplication facts using a constant 5-second (s) delay procedure. Data on the number of minutes of direct instruction time, as well as the number and percent of errors, trials, and sessions to criterion, were collected. Results indicated that the near-errorless learning procedure was effective in teaching multiplication facts to students placed in special education.Keywords
