Stefano Scippo – School Effectiveness and School Improvement, 2024
Montessori is a highly individualized pedagogy that prioritizes following each child's individual interests over standardized test scores. This quasi-experimental study compares groups of Montessori students (treatment groups, N = 535-710) with control groups of non-Montessori students, matched through the simple matching method, which controls…

Sutter, Claudia C.; Campbell, Laurie O.; Lambie, Glenn W. – Computers in the Schools, 2020
The present study investigated the predictability of a computer-adaptive, curriculum-based reading assessment for measuring second-grade students' overall and comprehension reading achievement on a standardized reading achievement test. Specifically, second-grade student scores (N = 428) of the Istation's Indicators of Progress for Early Reading…

Nesrin Sahin; Juli K. Dixon; Robert C. Schoen – School Science and Mathematics, 2020
This observational study used data from 270 second-grade students to investigate the association between students' strategy use for multidigit addition and subtraction and their mathematics achievement. Based on strategies they used during a mathematics interview, students were classified into the following strategy groups: (a) standard algorithm,…

Amanda Slaysman – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The problem addressed in this study was that in response to low standardized test scores, instructional strategies were required to be implemented in English Language Arts (ELA), but teachers in Grades 1 through 5 in the study site experienced challenges using these strategies to meet student learning needs. The explored teachers' experiences and…

Bronwyn Reid O'Connor – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
A 7-month mathematics proficiency program was conducted in a primary Australian Indigenous community school. This paper focuses on outlining the specific methodologies employed to explore how students' mathematical proficiency changed throughout the implementation of the program in Years 2 to 4 (~ 7 to 9 years old). A mixed methods research design…

Capone, Roberto; Filiberti, Federica; Lemmo, Alice – Education Sciences, 2021
This paper focuses on difficulties that primary school students have in facing mathematical word problems. In particular, we are interested in exploring how they develop in the transition from grade 2 to grade 5. The research basis of the hypothesis is that some difficulties detected in grade 5 are already predictable in grade 2. Starting from the…

Solomon, Benjamin G.; Forsberg, Ole J.; Thomas, Monelle; Penna, Brittney; Weisheit, Katherine M. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2022
Bayesian regression has emerged as a viable alternative for the estimation of curriculum-based measurement (CBM) growth slopes. Preliminary findings suggest such methods may yield improved efficiency relative to other linear estimators and can be embedded into data management programs for high-frequency use. However, additional research is needed,…

Guryan, Jonathan; Kim, James S.; Quinn, David M. – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2022
There are large gaps in reading skills by family income among school-aged children in the United States. Correlational evidence suggests that reading skills are strongly related to the amount of reading students do outside of school. Experimental evidence testing whether this relationship is causal is lacking. We report the results from a…

Petscher, Yaacov; Koon, Sharon – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2020
The assessment of screening accuracy and setting of cut points for a universal screener have traditionally been evaluated using logistic regression analysis. This analytic technique has been frequently used to evaluate the trade-offs in correct classification with misidentification of individuals who are at risk of performing poorly on a later…

Callahan, Carolyn M.; Azano, Amy Price; Park, Sunhee; Brodersen, Annalissa V.; Caughey, Melanie; Bass, Erika – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2020
Educators in gifted education struggle to identify effective strategies for identifying gifted students from under-served populations who would benefit from gifted education services. Using data from a longitudinal study and drawing from an initial student sample in 12 low-income rural districts, we examined an alternative identification process…

Jöbstl, Viktoria; Kargl, Reinhard; Prattes, Anna E.; Beyersmann, Elisabeth; Landerl, Karin – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2021
Morpheme-based literacy training programs are widely used in German primary schools. This study investigated whether (1) morphological training is effective early in development (Grade 2) and (2) literacy gains can be attributed to advanced morphological processing. Fifty-two German-speaking second-graders participated in an eight-week…
