This book was released on 2015-03-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on our understanding of the reading comprehension of adolescents in a high stakes academic environment. Leading researchers share their most current research on each issue, covering theory and empirical research from a range of specializations, including various content areas, English language learners, students with disabilities, and reading assessment. Topics discussed include: cognitive models of reading comprehension and how they relate to typical or atypical development of reading comprehension, reading in history classes, comprehension of densely worded and symbolic mathematical texts, understanding causality in science texts, the more rigorous comprehension standards in English language arts classes, balancing the practical and measurement constraints of the assessment of reading comprehension, understanding the needs and challenges of English language learners and students in special education with respect to the various content areas discussed in this book. This book is of interest to researchers in literacy and educational psychology as well as curriculum developers.

Book excerpt: Adolescents in the United States and their educators face an enormous challenge with respect to reading comprehension. College and career readiness standards outlined in the Common Core State Standards Initiative (2012) place increased emphasis on preparing students to read complex text across a range of content areas. At issue is how to develop the necessary skills to be able to read the texts required of college classes and literacy-demanding occupations when fewer than 35% of students in the secondary grades read proficiently (U.S. Department of Education, 2011). An emerging body of research has identified promising practices to promote reading comprehension among adolescents (Biancarosa & Snow, 2006; Boardman et al., 2008; Edmonds et al., 2009). Dole, Nokes, and Drits (2009) categorized comprehension practices into two categories: teaching practices and self-regulated learning strategies (i.e., strategies students use to gain understanding or knowledge). Findings from meta-analyses (Davis, 2010; Edmonds, 2009) suggest that multicomponent comprehension intervention holds promise. This study expands this evidence base by comparing a theoretically developed set of practices designed to develop knowledge and student-regulated text processing. Extending findings from recent meta-analyses of comprehension strategy instruction (Davis, 2010; Edmonds et al., 2009), the authors investigated effects of integrating teacher-directed knowledge-building and student-regulated comprehension practices on 7-10th grade students' reading comprehension. Three research questions were targeted: (1) What are the statistical and practical effects of knowledge-building and student-regulated practices on 7th to 10th-grade students' reading comprehension? (2) What is the relationship between dimensions of fidelity of implementation (i.e., adherence, quality of instruction, and program differentiation) and reading comprehension? and (3) Do knowledge-building and student-regulated practices differentially benefit subgroups of students with lower entry-level comprehension performance? Two tables are appended.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This action research study was conducted with 7th grade life science students at a public middle school in central Florida. The author used Reciprocal Teaching (RT) as described by Annemarie Palincsar and Anne Brown (1984) to examine changes in student comprehension when reading their life science textbook and changes in how the students used the predicting, questioning, and summarizing strategies. The RT strategies ask students to employ 4 strategies: predict what they will read, generate questions about what was read, clarify any ideas that were not understood in the reading, and summarize the main idea of the reading. Students were given a pre and post reading comprehension test, they completed reading response worksheets to record their predictions, questions, clarifications, and summaries. Students were explicitly taught the 4 strategies prior to using them and the strategies were reinforced through teacher modeling (using think aloud teaching to show students how to use the strategies) and expert scaffolding (giving students the support needed while using the strategies). The teacher-researcher also examined if the students showed change in their level of proficiency when using the strategies after they had been taught them. Analysis of data revealed that student comprehension did increase after being taught the four reading strategies. Data also showed that students became increasingly more proficient when using the strategies as the study progressed. Data analysis also uncovered the unexpected pattern of increased student participation during whole-class and reading group discussions. Further research is needed to examine the effects of teaching highly proficient students specific reading strategies and to see how the explicit instruction of reading strategies affects student participation and achievement during inquiry-based laboratory investigations.
