Research questions

Which supports reduce cognitive barriers for learners with dyscalculia while preserving conceptual growth?

Hypotheses

Stable visual anchors and reduced symbolic clutter will improve accuracy and confidence.

Proposed methods

diagnostic assessment; item-level telemetry; worked-example experiments; adaptive-practice trials; interviews; longitudinal progression analysis; pre-registered analysis; active comparison; subgroup and accessibility analysis; delayed retention or longitudinal follow-up; adverse-effect capture; reproducibility testing; participant debrief
