An Evaluation of the Junior League/Vancouver School Board Reading Tutorial Program. Research Report 75-07.
Dobson, Lee
The Junior League/Vancouver School Board tutorial Program began in September 1973. A coordinator was hired to train and supervise community volunteers who would tutor children with reading difficulties using a synthetic phonic program with multisensory reinforcement. Forty children, seventy-seven tutors, and twenty-two schools have participated in the one-to-one program. Twenty-five children and fifty tutors are currently active. Affective data from teachers, pupils, parents, and community groups were totally favorable to the program. All pupils made progress in reading skills. Seventy-seven percent of the pupils met the stated eighty-five percent performance criteria. (Author/BW)
