This book was released on 2010 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored the effects of independent reading programs vs. guided reading programs on reading comprehension in sixth graders in a Specialized Academic Instruction (SAl) setting. When comparing programs individually to determine the success of each program, the first conclusion of this study was that guided reading programs were more effective in helping participating students develop comprehension. An additional conclusion was that once teachers use guided reading then it is also beneficial to use both programs together because the independent reading builds on the guided reading. Teachers need to use guided reading to teach strategies for gaining comprehension and then allow students to use independent reading programs to implement those strategies on their own. The limitations to this study include the small number of students participating in the study, the use of only quantitative data, and some differences in the availability of materials between the two programs This study raises questions for further research into on effective strategies in teaching reading comprehension that do not correspond to a program.

This book was released on 2010-06-10 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children spend more time in school than in any social institution outside the home.

Cross-Disciplinary – this volume brings together the divergent perspectives, methods and findings of scholars from a variety of disciplines, among them educational psychology, developmental psychology, school psychology, social psychology, psychiatry, sociology, and educational policy. Chapter Structure – to ensure continuity, chapter authors describe 1) how schooling influences are conceptualized 2) identify their theoretical and methodological approaches 3) discuss the strengths and weaknesses of existing research and 4) highlight implications for future research, practice, and policy. Methodologies – chapters included in the text feature various methodologies including longitudinal studies, hierarchical linear models, experimental and quasi-experimental designs, and mixed methods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shares lessons gleaned from a two-year intervention in a high-poverty school, which was highly successful in significantly narrowing the literacy achievement gap and in raising children’s motivation and engagement in literacy both inside and outside school. Kennedy argues that there is much that disadvantaged schools can do to close the gap, but this is more likely to occur when a research-based approach to instruction (with a dual emphasis on cognitive skills and motivation and engagement), assessment and professional development is undertaken.
