Hudson, Alida; Koh, Poh Wee; Moore, Karol A.; Binks-Cantrell, Emily – Education Sciences, 2020
Oral reading fluency (ORF) deficits are a hallmark of reading difficulties. The impact of fluency struggles extends beyond word-level difficulties to include deficits in reading comprehension. Sixteen empirical studies conducted in 2000-2019 that examined ORF interventions among elementary students identified as having reading difficulties were…

Klubnik, Cynthia; Ardoin, Scott P. – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2010
Fluency has been identified as an important outcome of effective reading instruction, and intervention packages utilizing the method of repeated readings have been shown to improve oral reading fluency. In order to improve the efficiency of these intervention packages, more research is needed on the effectiveness of small group reading…

Farmer, Jeanie; Morse, Stephen E. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2007
Modeled after Project PAVE (Corn et al., 2003) in Tennessee, Project Magnify is designed to test the idea that students with low vision who use individually prescribed magnification devices for reading will perform as well as or better than students with low vision who use large-print reading materials. Sixteen students with low vision were…
