This book was released on 2010 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT There is a great deal of research supporting Reading Recovery as a successful reading intervention program that assists below level first graders readers in closing the gap in reading at the same level of their average peers. There is a lack of research that analyze the cost-effectiveness of the Reading Recovery program compared to the cost in providing Special Education services. This study examines the academic achievement of 156 students from eight cohort groups who participated in the Reading Recovery program and those students who were screening, but did not receive Reading Recovery services from the 1999 through 2007 school years.^Academic achievement was analyzed longitudinally to answer the following questions; did the student successfully discontinue the Reading Recovery program on grade level, did the student remain on grade level after first, second third and fourth grade, did the student reach the level 3 or level 4 benchmark of the New York State English Language Arts assessment and did the become classified as Learning Disabled? Cost-effectiveness data was analyzed in conjunction with achievement data to determine if participation in the Reading Recovery program lowers the classification rate of students, which would in turn have an effect of long-term costs of special Special Education services. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize and compare the outcomes of each student achievement measure between Reading Recovery student groups for each of the cohort groups through calculations of the mode, median, mean, and standard deviation.^Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were used to determine whether statistically significant differences exist between reading recovery group and comparison group for each outcome and also whether the outcomes change over time between cohort groups. Effect sizes also will be calculated to determine the practical significance of the group differences. Chi-square analysis was run for the end of each year to determine if the differences in On Grade Level performance between the independent variable groups were by chance. The ingredients method was used to compare the costs associated to the Reading Recovery program and to the cost of students who are provided with Special Education services. This method entails identifying all the resources needed to produce the effect that is observed. Current market prices for each ingredient will be used to assign nominal pecuniary values from the 2008-2009 school years.^The market price is a measure of what must be sacrificed in terms of the value of other commodities to provide the ingredient for the intervention. The findings indicated that students who successfully complete the Reading Recovery program (Discontinued students) remain on grade level through fourth grade and score at the level 3 and 4 benchmark level for the NYS ELA assessment at a higher rate than students who unsuccessfully complete the program (Recommended students) and students who do not finish the program (Non-Completer students). As one might expect, students who were not in need of intervention (Random) outperformed all other student groups in academic areas. Discontinued students were classified below the District rate for students with disabilities, while Recommended and Non-Completer students were classified at a much higher rate. None of the Random students were classified as having a learning disability.^The lower classification rate of Discontinued students could indicate that the students who successfully discontinue the Reading Recovery program would cost a district less money to educate over time compared to Recommended and Non-Completer students. There would be no additional costs associated to educating Random students. The low response rate of consent to review records limits the generalization of the findings presented in this study. The implications for practice are suggestions based on the information available for analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no shortage of innovative educational programs – the challenge is learning how to scale and sustain those with strong evidence of effectiveness. This book focuses on Reading Recovery – one of the few educational innovations that has successfully expanded and established itself in several educational systems in the world. Developed by Marie Clay in New Zealand during the mid-1980s, Reading Recovery is an intensive intervention for young students who are struggling to learn how to read, and has expanded to several countries across the globe over the last 30 years. Providing evidence of the intervention’s effectiveness both in the short- and long-term, this volume presents in-depth studies to elucidate why the program is effective; discusses the trials and tribulations in scaling and sustaining the program; and approaches scaling and maintaining from theoretical and practical perspectives. The contributors to this book explain how Reading Recovery has established itself because it has maintained a strong focus on evidence; developed a deep sense of community among its practitioners; and was at the forefront in enhancing professional development of the teachers who delivered the intervention. Understanding the implementation experiences of the intervention is beneficial for any innovation developer who wishes to grow and sustain an intervention. The chapters in this book were originally published as articles in the Journal of Education for Students Placed At Risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive history of the Obama administration's evidence-based initiatives. From its earliest days, the Obama administration planned and enacted several initiatives to fund social programs based on rigorous evidence of success. Ron Haskins and Greg Margolis tell the story of six—spanning preschool and K-12 education, teen pregnancy, employment and training, health, and community-based programs. Readers will appreciate the fast-moving descriptions of the politics and policy debates that shaped these federal programs and the analysis of whether they will truly reshape federal social policy and greatly improve its impacts on the nation's social problems. Based on interviews with 134 individuals (including advocates, officials at the Office of Management and Budget and the Domestic Policy Council, Congressional staff, and officials in the federal agencies administering the initiatives) as well as Congressional and administration documents and news accounts, the authors examine each of the six initiatives in separate chapters. The story of each initiative includes a review of the social problem the initiative addresses; the genesis and enactment of the legislation that authorized the initiative; and the development of the procedures used by the administration to set the evidence standard and evaluation requirements—including the requirements for grant applications and awarding of grants.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This applied dissertation was designed to evaluate a Reading Recovery program at an alternative school in Florida. The Reading Recovery program was used as an intervention for improving students' reading skills and performances on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) that is given each year to students in Grades 7 and 8. The researchers used the student's scores on the FCAT reading and English language arts tests to evaluate the effectiveness of the Reading Recovery program as an intervention in the researchers' school district. Each year, students were placed in the remedial reading class because they failed to achieve a passing score on the test in the previous years. Prior to this study, no data had been available to evaluate the effectiveness of a Reading Recovery program of at-risk students' academic performances. As a result of this applied dissertation, the researcher sought to assist the school in becoming more effective and efficient in implementing the Reading Recovery program. This study represents the school's attempt to evaluate the effectiveness of a Reading Recovery program implemented by every teacher in Grades 7 and 8. The evaluation results suggested that a Reading Recovery program was successful in reducing the number of at-risk students. The researcher was able to determine that the school had decided what needed to be done in order to improve the at-risk students' FCAT scores. Also, the researcher found that the majority of the teachers implemented the program as it was designed. The findings also suggested that the teachers who participated in the program viewed it as beneficial. The findings further indicated that the teachers now view assessments as an important piece in identifying individual student needs. (Contains 9 tables.).

This book was released on 1998-07-22 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most children learn to read fairly well, there remain many young Americans whose futures are imperiled because they do not read well enough to meet the demands of our competitive, technology-driven society. This book explores the problem within the context of social, historical, cultural, and biological factors. Recommendations address the identification of groups of children at risk, effective instruction for the preschool and early grades, effective approaches to dialects and bilingualism, the importance of these findings for the professional development of teachers, and gaps that remain in our understanding of how children learn to read. Implications for parents, teachers, schools, communities, the media, and government at all levels are discussed. The book examines the epidemiology of reading problems and introduces the concepts used by experts in the field. In a clear and readable narrative, word identification, comprehension, and other processes in normal reading development are discussed. Against the background of normal progress, Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children examines factors that put children at risk of poor reading. It explores in detail how literacy can be fostered from birth through kindergarten and the primary grades, including evaluation of philosophies, systems, and materials commonly used to teach reading.
