Deborah K. Reed – Learning Disabilities: A Contemporary Journal, 2022
This conceptual paper addresses fluency instruction and assessment for students with or at risk for reading disabilities. Although a multidimensional construct, fluency tests more often have been limited to measuring students' reading rate and accuracy. The reasons for this are explained as well as how fluency tests have influenced classroom…

Vaknin-Nusbaum, Vered – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2021
The effectiveness of a morphological awareness (MA) intervention program on reading fluency and accuracy performance was examined in 40 students with reading disabilities in fourth to sixth grade, ranging in age from nine to 12 years old (M = 10.51, SD = 0.89). The study used an experimental pre-post design consisting of a morphological…

Stevens, Elizabeth A.; Austin, Christy; Moore, Clint; Scammacca, Nancy; Boucher, Alexis N.; Vaughn, Sharon – Exceptional Children, 2021
Over the past decade, parent advocacy groups led a grassroots movement resulting in most states adopting dyslexia-specific legislation, with many states mandating the use of the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction. Orton-Gillingham is a direct, explicit, multisensory, structured, sequential, diagnostic, and prescriptive approach to…

Southward, Julie D. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Poor reading skills can impact high school students identified with a specific learning disability and affect overall academic achievement. This is due in part to secondary-level academic requirements with limited opportunities for remediation. Reading deficits can persist into adulthood, often resulting in lower family socioeconomic status, fewer…

Grünke, Matthias – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2019
Many children with different kinds of learning problems struggle with reading. To help them combat their challenges, easy-to-implement interventions are needed. Reading racetracks have proven to be effective tools to increase sight word fluency in students with disabilities. The purpose of this single-case study was to evaluate this technique, for…

Southward, Julie D.; Goo, Minkowan – International Journal of Special Education, 2019
The current study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of a repeated reading intervention for secondary level students identified with a specific learning disability. Although previous research suggests that repeated reading is an effective intervention to build oral reading fluency for students identified with disabilities, there is little…

Grünke, Matthias; Karnes, Jennifer; Hisgen, Susanne – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2019
In this study, we examined the impact of a simple explicit-timing intervention on low-achieving third-grade students' ability to read more rapidly and accurately. We implemented an ABAB design with four struggling readers to establish experimental control and to evaluate the effects of the treatment in terms of the target variable. The results…

Young, Mary Cece; Courtad, Carrie Anna; Douglas, Karen H.; Chung, Yun-Ching – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2019
This study investigated the effectiveness of text-to-speech (TTS) on the outcomes of reading comprehension and oral reading fluency (ORF) for four secondary students with learning disabilities. The researchers used a single-case A-B-A-B withdrawal design to evaluate the effectiveness of TTS on reading outcomes. All participants scored higher on…

Fenty, Nicole S.; Brydon, Melissa – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2020
Strong oral reading fluency skills are an important indication of good reading. In addition, reading engagement is often correlated with reading success. Unfortunately, students with learning disabilities (LD) often struggle to read fluently and engage with text. Incorporating graphic novels as part of a comprehensive reading program may help…
