Dixon, Chris; Oxley, Emily; Nash, Hannah; Gellert, Anna Steenberg – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Traditional static tests of reading and reading-related skills offer some ability to predict future reading performance, though such screeners may misclassify children with or at risk of reading disorder (RD). Dynamic assessment (DA) is an alternative approach that measures learning potential and may be less dependent on learning background. A…

Mermelstein, Aaron David – ORTESOL Journal, 2023
Reading is a complicated cognitive procedure of deciphering symbols to create meaning. It's a complicated relationship that the reader has with the text and is lead by a reader's previous knowledge, experiences, attitude, and culture. Second language (L2) reading comprehension is perhaps a more complicated procedure and there's a need to ensure…

Hassanzadeh, Mohammad; Salehizadeh, Mohammad Javad – TESOL Journal, 2020
Pronunciation instruction has historically been notorious for its intense reliance on repetition practice and mechanical drilling across most foreign and second language settings. However, research indicates that form-focused instruction can be substantially beneficial to the development of phonological skills (Saito, 2012). The current…

Stoeckel, Tim; McLean, Stuart; Nation, Paul – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
Two commonly used test types to assess vocabulary knowledge for the purpose of reading are size and levels tests. This article first reviews several frequently stated purposes of such tests (e.g., materials selection, tracking vocabulary growth) and provides a reasoned argument for the precision needed to serve such purposes. Then three sources of…

Clemens, Nathan H.; Fuchs, Douglas – Grantee Submission, 2021
Many seem to believe that researcher-made tests are unnecessary, if not inappropriate, for evaluating reading comprehension interventions. We suggest that this view reflects a zeitgeist in which researcher-made (proximal) tests that align with the researchers' interventions are closely scrutinized and often devalued, whereas commercially developed…

J. Joy Esquierdo; Isela Almaguer – Journal of Latinos and Education, 2025
The U.S. population has become more racially and ethnically diverse over time. The Latinx population growth makes Spanish the most common language encountered in non-native English-speaking populations such as Texas. The research objective of this study was to examine if implementing a One-Way Dual Language Education (DLE) Program could result in…
