Abstract: The article discusses the challenges faced by secondary special education teachers in providing effective online mathematics instruction to students with learning disabilities (LD) during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. It emphasizes the importance of implementing explicit instruction within a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework to support students with LD in learning mathematics online. The article provides concrete suggestions and strategies for implementing explicit instruction in secondary mathematics online, focusing on elements such as modeling, guided practice, and independent practice. It also highlights the need for additional considerations, such as providing student choice, maintaining student engagement, and utilizing digital technology effectively to support online learning for secondary students with LD.
