Session Description: Most adults with poor math skills report that fractions are the most confusing aspect of basic math, and they state that they have never understood fractions.  In this webinar, the Dr. Cooper will explain some of the reasons why these adult learners struggle with fractions; some have learning difficulties and others have information gaps.  Dr. Cooper will provide participants with instructional techniques that he has found helpful in teaching both concepts and computation skills involving fractions.  Adult educators who have participated in this presentation at conferences report that they gained a better understanding about why adults struggle with fractions and were excited to try the new techniques that they learned.
