What is it about?
In the Arab region, several assessments are available to evaluate student skills in mathematical computations. However, none of them uses formative evaluation to guide universal screening of struggling learners or students with learning disability (LD). The current study aimed to develop mathematical computation curriculum based measurement (MC-CBM) for Arab speaking fourth grade students

Why is it important?
It is the first study in the Arab region to examine the adequacy of CBM in mathematical computations.
Perspectives
Writing this article was really challenging particularly as CBM is a new area in the Arab region. The feedback we received from the reviewers was very helpful but at the same time very exhaustive. The editor of the journal was the person who pushed us forward to make the changes. We really learned throughout the way and as a team, we benefited a lot from such experience.
