Dr. Kenneth Holman is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Special Education at the University of West Georgia. He earned his Ph.D. in Exceptional Student Education from the University of Central Florida with a research focus on mathematics education, developmental dyscalculia, and artificial intelligence in inclusive learning environments. With 14 years of teaching experience, including 11 years in secondary education and three in higher education, he has taught mathematics, social sciences, and special education. His expertise includes game-based learning, AI-powered personalized instruction, and evidence-based practices that support students with disabilities. Dr. Holman has published peer-reviewed articles, presented at international and national conferences, and collaborated on federally funded projects such as TELEPORTS, ModelME, and FLITE-STEM. His long-term research goals include developing evidence-based screeners and interventions for developmental dyscalculia and expanding access to innovative instructional tools for diverse learners.
