Tulloch, Michelle K. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Learning to read is a fundamental skill that is understudied among children who hear more than one language at home. A particular limitation in the extant literature is that the samples are often Spanish-dominant and come from low-income households. This literature has evidence that Spanish skills -- both language-specific (i.e., vocabulary) and…

Amy Cummings; Katharine O. Strunk; Craig De Voto – Journal of Educational Change, 2023
In recent years, many states have adopted policies to ensure students are reading proficiently by third grade. This kind of policy transfer across states is not a unique phenomenon; researchers have documented analogous proliferations of similar policies both in and outside the field of education. However, there has been little attention paid to…

Kosar, Gülten – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
The improvement in critical reading skills (CRSs) plays a central part in college students' academic achievement, in the realization of which online collaborative learning (OCL) could perform a prominent role. This mixed-methods case study sets out to examine the influence of OCL on college students' CRSs due to the lack of research into it in the…

Marx, Nicole; Gill, Christian; Brosowski, Tim – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
Since 2015, increased numbers of newly immigrated schoolchildren in Europe have resulted in divergent, often ad hoc measures to provide for their education. Because the basis of classroom learning is information found in written texts, the development of grade-level reading skills is of central importance. However, little is known about immigrant…

Ibrahim A. Asadi; Abeer Asli-Badarneh; Raphiq Ibrahim; Hussein Hamzah – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: This study examined the differences in spoken Arabic (SpA) and standard Arabic (StA) in inflectional (gender, number, possessive pronouns, and tense) construction use in Arabic among preschoolers. Moreover, we tested the contribution of the inflectional constructions possessed in kindergarten to reading skills in the first grade and…

Atalay Biresaw; Berhanu Bogale – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
When students are provided with detailed and immediate feedback on their performance in an online test, they may get some pedagogical benefits from the exercise. This study examined the effects of elaborative feedback on students' reading comprehension skills: inference, reading for gist, and detail reading. The study followed a pre-test post-test…

J. Lettington; J. Van Herwegen – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2024
Background: The home literacy environment (HLE) has rarely been examined for individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, including individuals with Williams syndrome and Down syndrome. Method: The current study surveyed carers of individuals with Down syndrome (n = 48) and Williams syndrome (n = 18) in the United Kingdom (UK). Results: The…

Tracy Johnson; Emily Rodgers; Jerome V. D'Agostino – Reading Psychology, 2024
Current reading research largely focuses on word reading. This study complements that focus by considering what children do when encountering unknown words and how that problem-solving changes over time. We used overlapping wave theory to describe how children who were having difficulty with reading changed their word-solving actions across nine…

Su-Zhen Zhang; Tomohiro Inoue; Dianhai Zhang; Di Jin; George K. Georgiou – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2024
Purpose: We examined whether the relations between home literacy environment (HLE), children's independent reading, and emergent literacy and reading skills are confounded by parents' reading skills (a genetic proxy). Method: One hundred eighty-nine Chinese children (M[subscript age] = 74.26 months, 40% female) were followed from kindergarten to…

Kaitlynn D. Fraze – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Children with Down syndrome exhibit unique learning characteristics that impact their educational progress. Despite this, research on effective reading interventions specifically tailored for this population remains limited. The present study aimed to find the best ways to teach teaching foundational reading skills to children with Down syndrome.…

Jeanne Sinclair; Joelle Rodway; Della Magnusson; Britney Morrish; Norma St. Croix – Learning Professional, 2024
In 2012, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that learning to read is a fundamental human right and failure to provide appropriate education for students with reading disabilities is discriminatory (Moore v. British Columbia, 2012). In Ontario, Canada's most populous province, the Human Rights Commission's inquiry in 2022 found the province's…

Amanda C. Miller; Irene Adjei; Hannah Christensen – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Mind wandering occurs when a reader's thoughts are unrelated to the text's ideas. We examined the relation between mind wandering and readers' memory for text. More specifically, we assessed whether mind wandering inhibits the reader's development of the situation model and thus their ability to identify and recall the text's most central ideas.…

Daniel R. Espinas; Jeanne Wanzek – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2024
Facility with learning from multiple text documents is critical for college and career readiness. However, children with reading difficulties and disabilities have been largely excluded from research on multiple document comprehension. Accordingly, little is known about how children with reading difficulties and disabilities perform on…
