Abstract

Virtual manipulatives are a form of technology that support the mathematics teaching and learning of students with high-incidence and low-incidence (or extensive support needs) disabilities. The purpose of this chapter is to present virtual manipulatives as an assistive technology. Access to and use of virtual manipulatives have increased over the last decade, resulting in virtual manipulatives serving as a modern assistive technology to support students with a wide range of disabilities in mathematics. This chapter will present an overview of virtual manipulatives as assistive technology for students with disabilities and the research base supporting the effectiveness of this technology.
