Abstract
This poster presents the development of teacher observation instruments focused on mathematics instruction for students with disabilities (SWDs). Looking back, there is an evidence base to support several instructional practices that develop the math abilities of SWD, but there remains the enduring challenge of translating the evidence base to practice. Looking forward, there is a need to integrate research conducted in different fields, specifically mathematics education and special education, to support special education teachers (SETs) in their content instruction for diverse learners. The aim of these observation instruments is to reliably evaluate SETs mathematics instruction and provide content-specific, actionable feedback that results in improved outcomes for SWDs (Hill & Grossman, 2013).
