An Analysis of the Relationship of Reading Fluency, Comprehension, and Word Recognition to Student Achievement

Pearson correlations were calculated for each of the three independent variables and the dependant variable. All of the Pearson correlations were positive. Based on the calculated correlations, the null hypothesis was rejected. As revealed by the analysis, reading fluency had the greatest relationship with TAKS reading scale scores.

From Writers to Readers: An Analysis of First Grade Deaf Or Hard of Hearing Students' Writing Development Using Scaffolded Writing

Evidence for a significant relationship between students' hearing loss, language development and writing was clear. Scaffolded Writing provided the socio-cultural tools of materialization and self-talk with resultant qualitative changes in student writing and spelling from the perceptual to the conceptual as students accompanied their writing with private speech and the materialization of lines. Implications include strong evidence for awareness of psychogenesis and socio-cultural theory in approaches to emergent writing in the D/HH classroom.

An Analysis of the Effects of the Voyager Universal Literacy SystemRTM on At-risk Readers

The purpose of the study was to compare the reading performance on the third grade state reading assessment of students identified in first grade as at-risk struggling readers with the performance on the same assessment of their peers who were not identified in first grade as at-risk struggling readers. Data were collected from an urban school district in North-Central Texas for third grade students across 14 schools receiving Reading First funding. The 414 subjects in the study were from Reading First schools that adopted Voyager Expanded Learning'sRTM Universal Literacy (Voyager System) as the core reading curriculum in kindergarten through third grade. Subjects in the study received core reading instruction in the Voyager System in first, second, and third grade in the school years 2005-2006, 2006-2007, and 2007-2008. Data were collected on subjects' demographics (gender, ethnicity, English language proficiency, and socioeconomic status), Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) third grade scale scores for 2007-2008, and Voyager benchmarks for first, second, and third grade. Only students who were continuously enrolled in the Voyager System were retained for the study. A series of two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVAs) were conducted to determine if the earlier identified reading proficiency gap between at-risk readers and non at-risk readers based on gender, ethnicity, English language proficiency, and socioeconomic status closed after three years of instruction in the Voyager System. The data showed that there was not a statistically significant differences between males and females; African Americans, Hispanics, and White students; students of limited English proficiency and their English speaking peers; or between any socioeconomic class of students. It can be conjectured that Voyager Universal Literacy did close the achievement gap between male and female students; African American, Hispanic, and White students; LEP and non-LEP students; and students from all economic levels.

The goals of Universal Literacy are to close reading proficiency gaps and for all
children to read on grade level by the end of third grade. ... Panel: phonological

An Introduction to the Design and Analysis of Experiments in Behavioral Research

This second edition is still designed for graduate students and researchers in the social, behavioral and health sciences who have modest backgrounds in mathematics and statistics. Also, priority is still given to the discussion of seminal ideas that underlie the analysis of variance. With respect to the first edition, the late Jum C. Nunnally of Vanderbilt University remarked, 'Overall, there is no better text on statistics in the behavioral sciences available, and I strongly recommend it.' A new feature is the optional availability of a microcomputer software package, MICRO-ANOVA, that will enable researchers to perform all analyses presented in the text on IBM PCs or equivalent computers. The software package is available through UPA.

Let us assume that reading comprehension will be assessed through the
administration of a cloze test similar in construction to the one discussed briefly in
connection with the two-factor repeated measurements design. The two methods
