Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is about the efficacy of computer-assisted reading programs in a Pennsylvania middle school. This study aims to determine if there is a correlation between using computer-assisted reading programs and students’ reading assessment scores. The study also analyzes the relationship between students’ reading assessment scores and their grade level, gender, and ethnicity. This study pursued to answer the following questions: What is the effect of computer-assisted instruction on students’ reading assessment scores? What is the relationship between students’ reading assessment scores and their grade level, gender, and ethnicity? In the 21st century, schools all around the country engage computer-assisted reading programs. However, schools lack evidence of its effectiveness in student learning. This problem not only affects teachers’ planning but also affects student learning. The intent and spirit of the study will be to provide research evidence highlighting the efficacy of computer-assisted reading programs. The study results answered the two research questions and concluded that computer-assisted reading programs do not have much influence on student learning. Researchers can use this information and evidence for further investigation based on the study’s findings, such as using a larger population, different subject areas, and various computer-assisted learning programs. Computer-assisted learning is still in its infancy, and educators need more evidence to support their decisions to assist students in accessing their education.

Book How a Computer Assisted Instructional Program Affects the Reading Fluency of a Selected Group of 2nd Grade Students

Download or read book How a Computer Assisted Instructional Program Affects the Reading Fluency of a Selected Group of 2nd Grade Students written by Sharlese Louise James and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the effectiveness of Headsprout Early Reading to augment fluency abilities for second grade students in an urban public school system. Headsprout, a Computer-Assisted Instruction program (CAI), provided internet-based reading instruction based on the National Reading Panel's recommendations. All second grade students were assessed to determine who would use the program. Second grade students who participated in Headsprout sessions were compared with second grade students who did not use Headsprout. All participants were assessed again at the end of the study.Analysis of the students' gains was conducted using a Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance (R-ANOVA). It revealed that the participants showed more growth from their entry benchmark and exit benchmark scores than from their entry benchmark and mid-entry benchmark scores. Results of a Regression-Discontinuity Data design approach analysis showed an observable "discontinuity" between the mean averages for the treatment group and control group. Overall, results were more significant for those studentswho had participated in the program.

Book An Impact Analysis of Computer Assisted Instruction on the Reading Skills of Students with Disabilities

Download or read book An Impact Analysis of Computer Assisted Instruction on the Reading Skills of Students with Disabilities written by David A. Reiser and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quantitative, quasi-experimental research study was designed to determine the impact of a computer assisted reading instruction program on the fluency rates and comprehension skills of third and fourth grade students with reading disabilities at an Ohio suburban-metropolitan elementary school. Pretests established the participants' baseline reading skills. The participants' reading progress was monitored, during twenty-week baseline and intervention periods, with weekly measures of fluency and comprehension. Posttests measured the intervention program's impact on the participants' fluency rates and comprehension skills. Results were evaluated through visual analyses of experimental data graphs and by conducting time series matched pair t confidence interval tests to determine the reading intervention program's impact on the participants' reading skills, as measured by AIMSweb reading fluency probes, STAR reading comprehension tests, and Woodcock Johnson IV tests of reading achievement. The study provided two potential benefits for participants, improved reading fluency rates and comprehension skills, and increased value-added measures of student performance on Ohio's Common Core State Standards tests; and a third unintended benefit, improved school district's and teachers' value-added evaluation scores on the Ohio State Report Card.

Book The Effect of Computer assisted Reading Instruction on the Basic Reading Skills of Students with Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book The Effect of Computer assisted Reading Instruction on the Basic Reading Skills of Students with Developmental Disabilities written by Sara Moore Snyder and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluated the effects of a computer-assisted reading program, Mindplay Virtual Reading Coach (MVRC) on the basic reading skills of three elementary students served in a classroom for students with developmental disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. A multiple baseline across participants design with regulated randomization was used to evaluate the effects of MVRC on basic reading skills as assessed by three curriculum based measurement (CBM) reading assessments. While some participants showed improvements on specific CBM measures, the results were not consistent across participants nor statistically significant using non-parametric statistical analysis. The study lasted six months; however, even with daily intensive instruction, this may not have been long enough to show any significant change in reading skills. Directions for future research and implications for educational practice are discussed.

Book The Impact of Computer assisted Instruction on Ninth  and Tenth grade Students

Download or read book The Impact of Computer assisted Instruction on Ninth and Tenth grade Students written by Melanie May McNeely and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over 60 years of education reform, including the National Defense Education Act (NDEA) in 1958, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 1975, and No Child Left Behind (NCLB) in 2002, the achievement gap still existed at the beginning of the 21st century, and the effectiveness of the U.S. public school system continued to be questioned. This study was conducted to examine the effect of the use of a computer-assisted instruction curriculum, Achieve 3000®, among select secondary reading students in a central Florida school district and their implications for student achievement. This study showed significant difference existed in the type of students rather than the reading program. The ANCOVA performed on all students and the ANOVAs performed for exceptional education students, males and females, free/reduced lunch and ethnic subgroups did not show a significant statistical difference in the 2012-2013 reading achievement scores. The Achieve 3000® reading program did not close the achievement gap any more than the non-Achieve 3000® reading program. Conversely, the ANOVA performed for English language learners did show a significant statistical difference between the 2012-2013 reading achievement scores. However, the effect size each question was small indicating the practical implication was also small. Ultimately, this study made a strong argument for the need for further research.

Book Economic Evaluation in Education

Download or read book Economic Evaluation in Education written by Henry M. Levin and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen increased attention to cost-effectiveness and benefit-cost analysis in education as administrators are being asked to accomplish more with the same or even fewer resources, philanthropists are keen to calculate their "return on investment" in social programs, and the general public is increasingly scrutinizing how resources are allocated to schools and colleges. This text (titled Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in its previous editions) is the only full-length book to provide readers with the step-by-step methods they need to plan and implement a benefit-cost analysis in education. The authors examine a range of issues, including how to identify, measure, and distribute costs; how to measure effectiveness, utility, and benefits; and how to incorporate cost evaluations into the decision-making process. The updates to the Third Edition reflect the considerable methodological development in the evaluation literature, and the greater empiricism practiced by education researchers, to help readers learn to apply more advanced methods to their own analyses. SAGE congratulates author Henry M. Levin, winner of the 2017 AERA Distinguished Contributions to Research in Education Award.
