Download or read book Use of Three Probes Versus One Probe in Curriculum based Measurement Benchmarking Procedures for Reading Fluency written by Michael Robert Porter and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current procedures used in AIMSweb's Oral Reading Fluency Curriculum-Based Measurement Benchmarking require that students be administered three probes and the student's median score used in further decision making (Howe & Schinn, 2002). While the administration of three probes is the current procedures, there is no research available that indicates that this needs to be done to obtain a valid score. The data used in this study were historical data from the Fall and Winter 2011-2012 benchmarking taken by approximately 400 students from an elementary school in the upper Midwest in grades two through five. The data were analyzed to determine whether the same students who were flagged due to being at or below the designated cutoff points using the median score were also flagged by being at or below the cutoff points using the score on the first probe. While there were differences in the scores and some students did switch the level at which they were flagged, almost all of the students in the study that were flagged using the median score were also flagged using only the first probe administered. This indicates that there is a need for further research in this area.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis comprises three studies that investigate the construct of fluency and its relationship with literacy outcomes among elementary students enrolled in Canadian French immersion programs. The first study examined multiple dimensions of fluency and its relationship to reading comprehension among grade 3 students. Fluency assessed across level (word fluency and text fluency) and language (English and French) converged onto a single factor of reading skill. This unitary construct of fluency uniquely predicted English and French reading comprehension beyond a number of language and literacy controls providing evidence for a cross-language relationship between fluency and reading comprehension among emerging English-French bilinguals. The second study investigated an emergent interaction between word reading fluency and vocabulary in predicting reading comprehension among students followed from the second to the third grade. In grade 2, word reading fluency and vocabulary contributed independently to reading comprehension, though an interaction between these variables was not observed in either language. By grade 3, an interaction between word reading fluency and vocabulary emerged and uniquely predicted reading comprehension in both English and French. Specifically, vocabulary was positively related to reading comprehension among students with moderate to high levels of fluency, while vocabulary did not contribute to reading comprehension among those who were less fluent. The third study investigated whether the addition of fluency-based measures (letter naming fluency, nonsense word fluency, and word reading fluency) to an existing screening battery would improve the ability to predict students at-risk for future word reading difficulties among kindergarten and first-grade students. Results demonstrated that the inclusion of fluency measures significantly improved upon a baseline battery of phonological processing tasks in the prediction of at-risk status based on English and French word reading measured one year later. Evidence for both within- and cross-language prediction of future reading risk was shown. Grade 1 screening resulted in more accurate prediction compared to screening in kindergarten, suggesting that predictive accuracy increases as children gain additional exposure to reading instruction. Taken together, these results add to the extant research highlighting the prominent role of reading fluency as well as its within- and cross-language relationship with literacy outcomes.

Download or read book Reading Fluency written by Timothy Rasinski and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-01-21 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading fluency has been identified as a key component of proficient reading. Research has consistently demonstrated significant and substantial correlations between reading fluency and overall reading achievement. Despite the great potential for fluency to have a significant outcome on students’ reading achievement, it continues to be not well understood by teachers, school administrators and policy makers. The chapters in this volume examine reading fluency from a variety of perspectives. The initial chapter sketches the history of fluency as a literacy instruction component. Following chapters examine recent studies and approaches to reading fluency, followed by chapters that explore actual fluency instruction models and the impact of fluency instruction. Assessment of reading fluency is critical for monitoring progress and identifying students in need of intervention. Two articles on assessment, one focused on word recognition and the other on prosody, expand our understanding of fluency measurement. Finally, a study from Turkey explores the relationship of various reading competencies, including fluency, in an integrated model of reading. Our hope for this volume is that it may spark a renewed interest in research into reading fluency and fluency instruction and move toward making fluency instruction an even more integral part of all literacy instruction.

This book was released on 2015-08-10 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical, effective, evidence-based reading interventions that change students' lives Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties is a practical, accessible, in-depth guide to reading assessment and intervention. It provides a detailed discussion of the nature and causes of reading difficulties, which will help develop the knowledge and confidence needed to accurately assess why a student is struggling. Readers will learn a framework for organizing testing results from current assessment batteries such as the WJ-IV, KTEA-3, and CTOPP-2. Case studies illustrate each of the concepts covered. A thorough discussion is provided on the assessment of phonics skills, phonological awareness, word recognition, reading fluency, and reading comprehension. Formatted for easy reading as well as quick reference, the text includes bullet points, icons, callout boxes, and other design elements to call attention to important information. Although a substantial amount of research has shown that most reading difficulties can be prevented or corrected, standard reading remediation efforts have proven largely ineffective. School psychologists are routinely called upon to evaluate students with reading difficulties and to make recommendations to address such difficulties. This book provides an overview of the best assessment and intervention techniques, backed by the most current research findings. Bridge the gap between research and practice Accurately assess the reason(s) why a student struggles in reading Improve reading skills using the most highly effective evidence-based techniques Reading may well be the most important thing students are taught during their school careers. It is a skill they will use every day of their lives; one that will dictate, in part, later life success. Struggling students need help now, and Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties shows how to get these students on track.
