This meta-analysis synthesizes 49 standardized mean-change differences between control and treatment groups as effect sizes from 28 independent studies, investigating the efficacy of existing reading interventions on literacy skills for Chinese children. Six potentially important moderators were considered in this study. These moderators included…

For the first time, a comprehensive, multidisciplinary remedial system has been introduced in Moroccan schools designed to fill gaps in students' fundamental knowledge. The system is based on the Teaching at The Right Level (TARL) method, the principle of which is to relearn fundamentals according to the student's actual level through interactive,…

Many students with learning disabilities (LD) do not master basic reading skills, which affects later reading fluency and reading comprehension development. Single-case experimental design (SCED) research yields unique opportunities to better understand which aspects of a basic reading intervention are effective with a particular student,…

Background/purpose: The integrated skills approach has enhanced students' English proficiency and classroom engagement, yet challenges persist in its effective implementation. This study examines the impact of a pedagogical framework, based on six fundamental teaching stages, on students' English proficiency in General English classrooms and…

Learning to write programs is hard, but many fail to even learn basic program reading skills, such as mentally tracing a program to predict its behavior. This dissertation argues a new theory of programming language knowledge that includes mappings from syntax to semantics and their nested combinations can serve as the basis for more granular…

The Changing the Story Reading Programme for pupils in Key Stage 1 was initially developed by the National Literacy Trust through a strategic partnership with Hachette UK. It was later extended to include children in lower Key Stage 2 who require additional support with early reading skills. The programme combines Hodder Education's Reading Planet…

This study examines the effectiveness of Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction (EBLI) Teacher and Student Lessons in whole-classroom settings for grades K-5. Conducted in a Michigan school district during the 2023-2024 school year, this mixed-methods research evaluated implementation and outcomes across 815 students from 35 classrooms. MAP Growth…

A single embedded case study was conducted to examine the benefits students experience from participating in the Augustine Literacy Project -- Charlotte (ALP) Tutoring Program, specifically regarding the positive outcomes in students' reading proficiency development. A survey was administered to 135 tutors, followed by person-to-person…

This study examined incremental change for several reading component skills while adolescents were actively learning a word-level intervention and measured pre-/postintervention change in skills. Six ninth graders in two different classes participated during the 2019-2020 academic year. Primary analysis was based on an A-B single-case design…

Decades of research on early care and education have shown that four-year-old children who enroll in prekindergarten (pre-K) programs start kindergarten scoring higher on assessments of academic skills than those who do not. A handful of long-term follow-up studies of pre-K have also found that these programs can have lasting beneficial impacts on…

This research aims to determine the efficacy of the reading intervention program (OKU-GEL) in improving the fluent reading skills of primary school students with dyslexia. The model of the research is the changing criterion design from single-subject research models. The research was carried out with three Turkish-speaking male students attending…

Education has been identified as one of the most important ways to achieve national development. With 3 million non-literate adults in Lagos State, the commercial nerve center of the nation, radio becomes a veritable medium to teach such adults who, for several reasons including economic, do not have the opportunity of formal schooling. The study…

Children in Liberia receive 2.2 learning-adjusted years of schooling, one of the lowest levels of educational attainment in the world. We study one approach to address low enrollment and low rates of learning: a 10-month accelerated learning program run by the Luminos Fund to help out-of-school children catch up to grade level. We conducted a…

Purpose: We evaluated the efficacy of a reading comprehension intervention with dual language learners (DLLs) with documented English reading comprehension difficulties, half of whom had a developmental language disorder. The intervention EMBRACE (Enhanced Moved by Reading to Accelerate Comprehension in English) required children to move images on…

Purpose: Miniature linguistic systems (also known as matrix training) is a method of organizing learning targets to achieve generative learning or recombinative generalization. This systematic review is aimed at determining whether matrix training is effective for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in terms of improving recombinative…
