Topping, K. J.; Samuels, J.; Paul, T. – School Effectiveness and School Improvement, 2007
This study elaborates the "what works?" question by exploring the effects of variability in program implementation quality on achievement. Particularly, the effects on achievement of computerized assessment of reading were investigated, analyzing data on 51,000 students in Grades 1-12 who read over 3 million books. When minimum implementation…

Holden, Laura K.; And Others – American Journal of Audiology, 1995
Eight subjects participated in a comparison of the multipeak (MPEAK) and spectral peak (SPEAK) speech coding strategies of the Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implant system. Overall, speech recognition performance was significantly higher with the SPEAK strategy than with the MPEAK strategy on all speech tests. (Author)

Comparison of the Normal and Noise-Suppression Settings on the Spectra 22 Speech Processor of the Nucleus 22-Channel Cochlear Implant System.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Holden, Laura K.; And Others – American Journal of Audiology, 1995
Seven subjects participated in a comparison of the normal and noise suppression settings on the Spectra 22 speech processor of the Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implant system. Group data revealed no significant difference in performance between the two settings for either monosyllabic words in quiet or sentences presented in background babble.…
