Marrs, Heath; Patrick, Carol

Reading Psychology, v23 n4 p297-322 Oct-Dec 2002

Analyzes pre- and post-test measures of curriculum-based measurement (CBM) of oral reading fluency and reading comprehension collected from a sample of middle school students in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the computer-based Reading Plus and Guided Reading program. Obtains significant differences in discrepancy ratios from pre- to post-test for both CBM measures, although results varied according to grade level. (SG)
