ABSTRACT
Aim:
The present research sought at investigating the association between visual perception skills and written mathematical communication skills among a sample of students with learning disabilities in mathematics in Jordan.Method:
This was a cross-sectional correlational study that included a sample of 90 primary-stage students who were diagnosed as having learning disabilities in mathematics. To collect data, the researchers developed two data collection tools; the visual perception skills test (50 items) and the written mathematical communication skills test (6 items). The tests were validated and ensured for reliability before implementation on the original study sample. The data gathered in this study was analyzed using the Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS).Results:
The results showed that there was a significant statistical association between visual discrimination and Written mathematical communication skills test (r=0.218), visual closing test and Written mathematical communication skills test (r=0.411), shape relationship perception test and Written mathematical communication skills test (r=0.438), Visual Integration and Spatial Relationship Perception Test and Written mathematical communication skills test (r=0.614), Visual information recall test and Written mathematical communication skills test (r=0.154). The results showed that there was a significant positive association between visual perception skills and written mathematical communication skills (r=0.509).Conclusion:
The study ended up with that there is a significant positive association between visual perception skills and written mathematical communication skills among students with learning disabilities in mathematics. The study recommends developing mathematical educational material based on the visual approach and improving these skills among students with learning disabilities to develop their written mathematical communication skills.
