During the four decades since the founding of the National Center for Developmental Education (NCDE; originally the Center for Developmental Education), research related to the field has continued to expand and mature. As a research center focused on using research to inform and improve practice, the NCDE's 40th Anniversary timeline presents…

This bibliography lists references related to diagnostic and prescriptive instruction in mathematics education. The references are given in alphabetical order, without annotation or categorization. (MNS)

This bibliography, developed by Project RIMES 2000 (Reading Instructional Methods of Efficacy with Students), lists approximately 225 materials for teaching early reading and spelling to students at risk for reading and spelling failure. Materials are presented alphabetically by title. Entries usually include a grade level indicator, a brief…

This annotated bibliography provides journal references on how children learn mathematics and about diagnostic and remedial techniques for teaching mathematics, particularly at the elementary school level. A large number of the articles report research in diagnostic and prescriptive mathematics. (MNS)

This second annotated bibliography provides references to articles, books, dissertations, and presentations published since the first bibliography appeared in 1979. The focus is again on how children learn mathematics and on diagnostic and remedial techniques for teaching mathematics, particularly at the elementary school level. Many research…

Although the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) involves modifications and a complete restandardization, the literature suggests that it remains very similar in nature to its predecessor, the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). Individuals perform on the WISC-R largely the same as they do on the WISC. (Author)

This bibliography, developed by Project RIMES (Reading Instructional Methods of Efficacy with Students) lists 80 software packages for teaching early reading and spelling to students at risk for reading and spelling failure. The software packages are presented alphabetically by title. Entries usually include a grade level indicator, a brief…

This bibliography lists nearly two hundred articles from about forty periodicals and primarily covers material written within the last 10 years. The articles include reports of successful practices, surveys, research summaries, suggestions, reviews, and opinions about mathematics for students with special learning problems. (MP)

The 50 nonverbal tests in this bibliography assess aptitude and cognitive skills using various nonverbal means, such as pictures, symbols, or figures. They are useful in testing those who may have reading difficulties or those for whom English is not the primary language. Not included are aptitude measure that have both verbal and nonverbal…

The 56 tests described in this bibliography include instruments developed by Jean Piaget and others, based upon his work. Some instruments apply his concepts to measuring children's abilities and knowledge in mathematics, science, music, and reading. Several tests are diagnostic tests to identify individuals who may need special attention. All…

Focusing on students who are at risk of failure in reading, this 26-item annotated bibliography offers strategies, instructional approaches, and motivational techniques to help those who deal with this group of students. The selections in the bibliography date from 1983 to 1989. The bibliography is divided into sections on general information, the…

The purpose of this annotated bibliography is to bring to the attention of the German teacher some of the critical issues in language teaching methodology and pedagogical theory that have been of concern recently. The bibliography points out some specific works that have a clear and direct bearing on what happens in the German classroom. The works…

Among the individually administered 34 intelligence tests described in this bibliography are those for deaf persons, Spanish speakers, and other special populations. Tests requiring nonverbal responses are included. Most of the tests described in this bibliography provide I.Q. scores which are standard scores, with a mean of 100 and standard…

Most of the 28 tests included in this bibliography assess intelligence and provide an actual I.Q. score or one that is statistically similar. (A complete list of mental or cognitive ability tests is available separately.) Although all ages are represented, the majority of tests are targeted to grades 4 through 6. This document is one in a series…
