Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehension and metacognitive outcomes above and beyond core instruction. Therefore, the relationship between the maze-selection scores of the core group (n = 62) was used to predict the posttest scores of the Tier II at-risk group (n = 22) had they not received Tier II treatment. The posttest scores of at-risk students were not significantly higher than expected, resulting in no main effects for the intervention based on student outcomes. However, a positive treatment effect was observed on the measure of metacognitive knowledge with an effect size of .27. The results and limitations of the current study and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Download or read book Teaching and Learning Vocabulary written by Elfrieda H. Hiebert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-05-06 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although proficiency in vocabulary has long been recognized as basic to reading proficiency, there has been a paucity of research on vocabulary teaching and learning over the last two decades. Recognizing this, the U.S. Department of Education recently sponsored a Focus on Vocabulary conference that attracted the best-known and most active researchers in the vocabulary field. This book is the outgrowth of that conference. It presents scientific evidence from leading research programs that address persistent issues regarding the role of vocabulary in text comprehension. Part I examines how vocabulary is learned; Part II presents instructional interventions that enhance vocabulary; and Part III looks at which words to choose for vocabulary instruction. Other key features of this timely new book include: *Broad Coverage. The book addresses the full range of students populating current classrooms--young children, English Language Learners, and young adolescents. *Issues Focus. By focusing on persistent issues from the perspective of critical school populations, this volume provides a rich, scientific foundation for effective vocabulary instruction and policy. *Author Expertise. Few volumes can boast of a more luminous cast of contributing authors (see table of contents). This book is suitable for anyone (graduate students, in-service reading specialists and curriculum directors, college faculty, and researchers) who deals with vocabulary learning and instruction as a vital component of reading proficiency.

Download or read book Metacognitive Effects on Reading Comprehension written by Kevin Lilly and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The following research study reports the effects of Think-Alouds, Reciprocal Teaching, and Reflective Journaling on the reading comprehension of third grade students. Data was gathered via pre- and post-surveys, researcher observations, student work, student quotations, member-checks, and assessment scores from global reading tests. The strategies were implemented one at a time. Think-Alouds and Reciprocal Teaching were modeled by the teacher and scaffolded so that most participants were able to use them independently by the end of the study. Reflective journal entries were collected throughout the study. Analysis of the data revealed that students' reading comprehension was positively affected by the three metacognitive strategies. Appropriate instruction of metacognitive strategies have a beneficial impact on the reading comprehension of third grade students.
