Houston Independent School District Innovations for Learning Tablet Instructions for Early Reading in Kindergarten- and First-Grade Data Report, 2015-2016. Research Educational Program Report
Houston Independent School District
This is a data report on the Innovation for Learning (IFL) tablet instruction. The report presents the performance of students who were exposed to the IFL tablet instruction. The IFL tablet instruction involved the teaching of early reading in kindergarten and first grade in 29 elementary schools in the Houston Independent School District (HISD) during the 2015-2016 academic year using digital technology. The report used Istation data for students whose teachers participated voluntarily in the IFL table instruciton and who had all three assessment benchmark indexes: beginning of the year (BOY), middle (MOY), and end of the year (EOY). Istation is a web-delivered computer-adaptive assessment system for continuous progress monitoring of early reading growth for pre-k- to third-grade students (Mathes, Torgesen & Herron, 2016). IFL teachers and students were linked using the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) and Istation data.
