Hsin, Lisa B.; Miratrix, Luke; Kim, Ha Yeon; LaRusso, Maria D.; Snow, Catherine E. – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Understanding the factors associated with variation in the implementation of educational programs has emerged as a key research focus, in an effort to identify how promising programs can be scaled up across their targeted contexts. The current study explored demographic-related variation in program dosage using a novel source of implementation…

Haya Shamir; David Pocklington; Erik Yoder; Mikayla Tom; Alexander Houchins – Online Submission, 2024
Identifying effective methods that can counteract seasonal trends in learning loss is essential to ensure continuous literacy growth of young learners. Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) is a solution for providing an effective summer literacy program that could help offset summer learning loss. In this study, four-year-old students from South…

Objective: Our study aimed to compare the efficacy of artificial intelligence (AI)-based immersive training with human-led workshops to improve the English language skills of non-English early career researchers (NEECRs) in a Nigerian public university. Methods: Our study employed a randomized pretest/posttest control group design. A total of 124…

Hua, Youjia; Hinzman, Michelle; Yuan, Chengan; Balint Langel, Kinga – Exceptional Children, 2020
An emerging body of research suggests that incorporating randomization schemes in single-case research designs strengthens study internal validity and data evaluation. The purpose of this study was to test the utility and feasibility of a randomized alternating-treatment design in an investigation that compared the combined effects of vocabulary…

Joshua B. Gilbert; James S. Kim; Luke W. Miratrix – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Longitudinal models of individual growth typically emphasize between-person predictors of change but ignore how growth may vary "within" persons because each person contributes only one point at each time to the model. In contrast, modeling growth with multi-item assessments allows evaluation of how relative item performance may shift…

Joshua B. Gilbert; James S. Kim; Luke W. Miratrix – Applied Measurement in Education, 2024
Longitudinal models typically emphasize between-person predictors of change but ignore how growth varies "within" persons because each person contributes only one data point at each time. In contrast, modeling growth with multi-item assessments allows evaluation of how relative item performance may shift over time. While traditionally…

Dianne Newbury; Carol Mesa; Marina L. Puglisi; Marysia Nash; Sonali Nag; Charles Hulme; Margaret J. Snowling – Research Papers in Education, 2023
Research in the UK suggests that multi-componential interventions focusing on language and pre-literacy skills can improve children's reading and language skills. However, simple translations of such programmes may not produce equivalent effects in diverse communities. The reasons for this are multi-faceted and include factors beyond the rationale…

A solid understanding of fractions is the cornerstone for acquiring proficiency with rational numbers and paves the way for learning advanced mathematical concepts, such as algebra. Fraction difficulties limit not only students' educational and vocational opportunities but also their ability to solve everyday problems. Students who exit 6th grade…

Prediger, Susanne; Erath, Kirstin; Weinert, Henrike; Quabeck, Kim – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2022
Empirical evidence exists that enhancing students' language can promote the mathematics learning of multilingual students at risk, whereas other target groups (e.g., monolingual students, successful students, both with diverse academic language proficiency) have hardly been considered. This cluster-randomized controlled trial (N = 589)…

Kelley, Elizabeth; Leary, Emily; Goldstein, Howard – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: To effectively implement a response to intervention approach, there is a need for timely and specific information about student learning in response to treatment to ensure that treatment decisions are appropriate. This exploratory study examined responsivity to a supplemental, Tier 2 vocabulary intervention delivered to preschool children…

Shamir, Adina; Segal-Drori, Ora; Goren, Ilana – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
The main purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of an activity with an educational electronic book (e-book) on language retention among children at risk for learning disabilities (LD) (seven weeks after the intervention). Two modes of the educational e-book were investigated: with and without metacognitive guidance. Seventy seven…

Clemens, Nathan H.; Oslund, Eric; Kwok, Oi-man; Fogarty, Melissa; Simmons, Deborah; Davis, John L. – Exceptional Children, 2019
This study utilized secondary analyses of a randomized controlled trial and investigated the extent to which prestest word identification efficiency, reading fluency, and vocabulary knowledge moderated the effects of an intervention on reading comprehension outcomes for struggling readers in sixth through eighth grades. Given that the experimental…

Nancy K. Scammacca; Stephanie J. Stillman – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2018
Deficits in academic vocabulary knowledge plague students who struggle with reading and impact their reading comprehension and performance in content area courses. Experts have developed interventions aimed at improving vocabulary instruction. However, questions remain concerning the effects of vocabulary gains on reading comprehension and content…

McLeod, Ragan H.; Kaiser, Ann P.; Hardy, Jessica K. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2019
Although extensive research exists on vocabulary instruction during book reading in preschool classroom, comparatively little research has been conducted on vocabulary exposure in classroom play contexts and child vocabulary outcomes. The purpose of this study was to examine Head Start teacher and child vocabulary use in dyadic play sessions and…
