Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Reading and Spelling With Special Reference to Disability The investigation here reported was made possible by the generosity of Mr. Frank A. Vanderlip, founder of the Scarborough School at Scarborough, New York. Under the supervision of Mr. Wilford M. Aikin, the director of the school, a department of educational research was organized in the school, in the fall of 1920. The writer was placed in charge of the department and throughout has enjoyed the able assistance of Miss Jessie La Salle in conducting tests and examinations and of Miss Theodosia Bay and Miss Ella Woodyard in the statistical treatment of results. To the director and to the members of the staff of the school, the writer is deeply indebted for heartiest coöperation. Acknowledgment of very helpful suggestions and criticisms are gratefully rendered to Dr. G. S. Gates, Dr. L. S. Hollingworth and Dr. H. L. Hollingworth, each of whom has read the manuscript.

Book The Psychology of Reading and Spelling Disabilities

Download or read book The Psychology of Reading and Spelling Disabilities written by A.F. Jorm and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1983, recent advances in cognitive psychology had revealed that reading and spelling disabilities may be due to deficits in basic cognitive processes. Dr Jorm looks at each type of disability in detail, in relation to normality as well as intellectual disability (formerly called retardation), and finds that the new research provides a useful approach to seemingly intractable problems. He covers a broad range of topics, including the social context of reading disabilities, the role of biological factors, remedial teaching, and prevention of literacy problems. He also gives a forward-looking account of how research at the time on the cognitive processes in comprehension might aid our understanding of the relatively neglected group of children who can read individual words yet fail to comprehend adequately. Reading disabilities are increasingly serious in a culture which places an ever higher value on literacy, and the discoveries of the cognitive psychologists are presented here in a way that will still be accessible to all those teachers and parents who want to know about developments in the past.

Book Improving Adult Literacy Instruction

Download or read book Improving Adult Literacy Instruction written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high level of literacy in both print and digital media is required for negotiating most aspects of 21st-century life, including supporting a family, education, health, civic participation, and competitiveness in the global economy. Yet, more than 90 million U.S. adults lack adequate literacy. Furthermore, only 38 percent of U.S. 12th graders are at or above proficient in reading. Improving Adult Literacy Instruction synthesizes the research on literacy and learning to improve literacy instruction in the United States and to recommend a more systemic approach to research, practice, and policy. The book focuses on individuals ages 16 and older who are not in K-12 education. It identifies factors that affect literacy development in adolescence and adulthood in general, and examines their implications for strengthening literacy instruction for this population. It also discusses technologies for learning that can assist with multiple aspects of teaching, assessment,and accommodations for learning. There is inadequate knowledge about effective instructional practices and a need for better assessment and ongoing monitoring of adult students' proficiencies, weaknesses, instructional environments, and progress, which might guide instructional planning. Improving Adult Literacy Instruction recommends a program of research and innovation to validate, identify the boundaries of, and extend current knowledge to improve instruction for adults and adolescents outside school. The book is a valuable resource for curriculum developers, federal agencies such as the Department of Education, administrators, educators, and funding agencies.

Book Handbook of Reading Disability Research

Download or read book Handbook of Reading Disability Research written by Anne McGill-Franzen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-17 with total page 1175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together a wide range of research on reading disabilities, this comprehensive Handbook extends current discussion and thinking beyond a narrowly defined psychometric perspective. Emphasizing that learning to read proficiently is a long-term developmental process involving many interventions of various kinds, all keyed to individual developmental needs, it addresses traditional questions (What is the nature or causes of reading disabilities? How are reading disabilities assessed? How should reading disabilities be remediated? To what extent is remediation possible?) but from multiple or alternative perspectives. Taking incursions into the broader research literature represented by linguistic and anthropological paradigms, as well as psychological and educational research, the volume is on the front line in exploring the relation of reading disability to learning and language, to poverty and prejudice, and to instruction and schooling. The editors and authors are distinguished scholars with extensive research experience and publication records and numerous honors and awards from professional organizations representing the range of disciplines in the field of reading disabilities. Throughout, their contributions are contextualized within the framework of educators struggling to develop concrete instructional practices that meet the learning needs of the lowest achieving readers.

Book excerpt: The identification of poor readers as "learning disabled" can be the first of many steps toward consigning students to a lifetime of reading failure. The very label that is meant to help children often becomes a burden that works against effective learning throughout their schooling. In this book, the authors identify the dangers of labeling children as reading or learning disabled, contending that a "reading disability" is not a unitary phenomenon. In order to diagnose and help children, educators and parents need to understand the multiple sources of reading difficulty before they can choose appropriate means to correct it. Drawing on recent research in cognitive psychology, the authors present a new theoretical model of reading disability that integrates a wide variety of findings across age and grade spans. Laid out in terms that are readily comprehensible to parents and practitioners, the model outlines the phases that are characteristic of the path to proficient reading, then describes four ways in which disabled readers may stray from this path. The key to the authors' work lies in the fact that youngsters who stray from the path of typical reading acquisition often are not distinguishable from other children who are classified as "poor readers" rather than as "learning disabled." This model is an especially useful one for practitioners because it both provides a broader view of reading disability than have many previous models and shows how reading disability relates to typical reading acquisition. Using illustrative case studies, the authors describe the four patterns of reading disability, explain how to properly assess them, and suggest ways to conquer them.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Special, Disability in Spelling The experiment here described was carried on during the aca demic year 1916 - 1917 at Teachers College, Columbia University. We wished (i) to observe, over a considerable period of time, the learning of pupils with special pedagogical defects, i.e., those pupils who are of normal general capacity, but Who are incompetent in one particular school subject; (2) to apply psychological tests to such pupils, with a view to a diagnosis of their disabilities; and (3) to discover and devise, if might be, remedies for such defects. Incidentally we wished also to. Study the psychological processes involved in mastering the two school subjects, arithmetic and spelling. Two experiments were therefore undertaken, one with pupils who showed special disability in arithmetic, and another with pupils who showed special disability in spelling. The present report has to do with the group whose defect was in spelling. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
