The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of modified schema-based instruction (MSBI) on teaching post-secondary adolescents
with extensive support needs (ESN) mathematical problem solving in a multiple probe across participants design. Participants were taught to
self-monitor through the steps of problem solving using a task analysis and with the support of a schema and calculator solved multiplicative
comparison word problems. Generalization was also measured within the context of a real-world activity. This study utilized a novel
self-monitoring system to facilitate student goal setting and self-graphing of progress to contribute to student self-determination skills.
Before and after implementation of the MSBI, three dependent variables were measured: independent steps completed accurately, problems solved,
and generalization. Visual analysis indicated a functional relation between MSBI and two of the three dependent variables (primary and
secondary). Results and future implications for research are discussed. / A Thesis submitted to the School of Teacher Education in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree
