This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study's purpose was to examine the impact of a computer-assisted reading program, "Academy of Reading," on reading achievement of 2nd and 3rd grade readers. The researcher studied the impact a computer-aided reading program had on the reading achievement of students in a central Mississippi suburban school district. A quasi-experimental research design was used to conduct the research. There were a total of 8 intact classes out of 30 classes from 1 elementary school used in the study. Of these 8, 4 were 2nd-grade classes of 15 intact classes and 4 were 3rd-grade classes of 15 intact classes. The 2nd grade reading classes that were selected were identified as below average according to the Scientific Research Association (SRA) Reading Placement Test. The 3rd grade classes selected were performing at grade level. The 3rd grade did not have many intact classes below the established grade 3 level as in 2nd grade. The selected classes were randomly put in the control and quasi-experimental groups. Both groups were given the STAR reading assessment as a pretest. The quasi-experimental group contained 65 students who received the treatment for a 9-week period. Each class went to the computer lab 3 times a week for 30-minute sessions. The control group contained 68 students who continued with independent reading activities in the classroom. At the end of the quasi-experimental treatment both groups were administered the STAR reading assessment as the post-test. The control group had a pretest mean score of 3.14 and the quasi-experimental group had 2.64. An analysis of covariance was used to adjust for the pretest differences. The post-test scores indicated a slight increase in the mean scores in reading performance of both groups. The mean score for the control group was 3.30 and the quasi-experimental group was 2.87. The control group students improved the mean score by 0.16 and the quasi-experimental group improved by 0.23 points. There was no significant difference; therefore the null hypothesis was accepted. The quasi-experimental group had increased in reading performance as suggested by many articles and research publications, such as Fiedorowicz and Trites (1987), Colorado Commission of the States (1999), and Schacter (2000) supporting Academy of Reading. When the data were analyzed based on gender, ethnicity, and grade level, the quasi-experimental group had the largest increase in the mean scores. However, the findings showed that there was no statistical difference among the groups based on these demographic variables.

Book Advances in Research on Reading Recovery

Download or read book Advances in Research on Reading Recovery written by Jerome V. D'Agostino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 100 pages. 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.

Book The Long Term Effectiveness of Reading Recovery and the Cost Efficiency of Reading Recovery Relative to the Learning Disabled Classification Rate

Download or read book The Long Term Effectiveness of Reading Recovery and the Cost Efficiency of Reading Recovery Relative to the Learning Disabled Classification Rate written by Charles Galluzzo and published by . 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.

Book Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children

Download or read book Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. 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.

Book Reading Instruction in America

Download or read book Reading Instruction in America written by Barbara Ruth Peltzman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-10-02 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diversity of student populations in the United States presents educators with many challenges. To provide effective reading instruction for the individual student, teachers must understand the enormous variety of reading methods and materials that exist and make independent decisions based on their students' particular needs. Research indicates that educators are often influenced by reading instruction fads that quickly fade, making it more challenging to develop a repertoire of teaching strategies in which a teacher may have confidence. This book examines a variety of reading methods used in American schools from the 19th to the 21st century, and the literature promoting or critiquing them, to help teachers become informed decision makers and better meet the needs of students.
