This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of the implementation practices of successful elementary schools will be beneficial to other elementary principals who seek to improve student success in reading. This study examined perceptions of principals from elementary schools in Texas whose schools received the Gold Performance Acknowledgement (GPA) from the Texas Education Agency (TEA) for Continuous Improvement in Reading (CIR) on the Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) in 2002. The study had two purposes: (1) to identify the principal's perception of the levels of implementation and impact of selected reading strategies used by selected elementary schools in Texas to improve student success in reading and (2) to determine the principal's perception of the extent to which Accelerated Reader (AR) and AR-like recommend practices were used in selected elementary schools in Texas. The research design for this study was descriptive. Parameters, which are descriptive measures of a population, were used since all 721 members of the population were mailed questionnaires. Research was conducted during the winter of 2004. Two hundred fifty-two principals responded. A questionnaire using a Likert type scale for the principals' responses was used to collect the data. Principals' perceptions were measured to determine the degree of implementation and impact of AR and other selected reading strategies. Data were analyzed for all 252 respondents for selected reading strategies and by the categories of AR and non-AR schools for AR recommended reading strategies and AR-like recommended reading strategies, respectively. This study identified the characteristics of a successful reading program in Texas elementary schools. To maximize their budgets while improving student success in reading, principals should provide their teachers with professional development, implement student/teacher conferences to direct reading practice, allow students to self-select books on their independent reading level for independent reading practice, consider use of literature circles, classroom libraries and reading textbooks, review the use of rewards and posting of goals to determine if these practices increase students' success in reading, assess computer reading programs to determine if there are less costly options available, and in schools using the AR program, review implementation practices for greater impact.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of creating lifelong readers has been always been a value to all teachers because it is critical factor that contributes to a student’s academic success. Accelerated Reader has been implemented among schools across the nation to engage students into reading and used as a tool to measure student learning in reading achievement. Research on Accelerated Reader reveals that the reading program has contradictory findings of having a positive and negative effect on students. A qualitative research design was used to investigate whether and how Accelerated Reader effects students’ perceptions as reader and attitudes towards reading. A total of 25 second graders provided qualitative data with responses to a survey and interview. Classroom observations were also made over the six-week period of the study. Analyses of student behaviors, responses, and comments led to identification of important themes related to the students’ experiences with Accelerated Reader. The results showed that Accelerated Reader did affect students both positively and negatively.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on research conducted by The National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented, this guidebook presents a framework for increasing reading achievement, fluency, and enjoyment. The Schoolwide Enrichment Model Reading Framework (SEM-R) focuses on enrichment for all students through engagement in challenging, self-selected reading, accompanied by instruction in higher order thinking and strategy skills. A second core focus of the SEM-R is differentiating instruction and reading content, coupled with more challenging reading experiences and advanced opportunities for metacognition and self-regulated reading. Chapters cover each of the three phases of the framework, implementation variations, and organization strategies, and the appendices provide handouts, booklists, charts, and more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How parents and educators can teach kids to love reading in the digital age Everyone agrees that reading is important, but kids today tend to lose interest in reading before adolescence. In Raising Kids Who Read, bestselling author and psychology professor Daniel T.

Download or read book The Impact of the Accelerated Reader Program on Elementary Students' Reading TAKS Scores in an Urban Predominantly Hispanic Title I School written by Hasiyet Keyim and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many students continue to struggle with acquiring the necessary skills to become successful readers. The most commonly used software for teaching reading is the Accelerated Reader (AR) program. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of the Accelerated Reader program on elementary students' reading TAKS scores in an urban predominantly Hispanic Title I school. Namely, the study investigated the relationship among the amount of time spent reading, amount of reading, average AR test scores, and students' reaching AR goal in the Accelerated Reader Program, and students' reading achievement, as measured by the state high stakes standardized test, Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) test. Archival data contained AR reading records and TAKS reading scores for 300 elementary students in an urban predominantly Hispanic Title I school during 2007- 2008 and 2008-2009 school years was analyzed. A correlation design was utilized for this ex-post facto study to determine if a correlation exists between the reading achievement of the students, as measured by the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skill reading tests and the implementation of Accelerated Reader Program as measured by Engaged time in reading, AR points, AR average scores, and AR goal. The results showed there are low to moderate correlation between the Accelerated Reader program's major components AR Engaged Time, AR points, AR average correct, AR goal, and The TAKS reading test. Surprisingly, we found very 1 provocative results; 100% of the students who did not pass TAKS-Reading also did not reach their AR Goal; 100% of the students who reach their AR goals also passed TAKS reading tests. In addition, the researchers found limited empirical support for "Matthew effect" in reading, as evidenced by low to moderate correlations and small amount of variance explained. Importantly, there was significant variation in program implementation by teacher and grade level. Practical implications for elementary school reading instruction are discussed.

Download or read book The Effect of Accelerated Reader on Reading Scores in a Rural School District written by Teresa A. Hunter and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this study, the implementation of Accelerated Reader (AR), a computer-assisted supplemental reading program, was investigated as a research-based instructional strategy to assess whether it aided a high-performing, rural school district in meeting adequate yearly progress goals. The theoretical framework was based on Vygotsky's zone of proximal development. The overall research question for this quasi-experimental, longitudinal study was whether AR impacted students' reading change scores on a standardized test over a 2-year period. Reading achievement data of students in 4 elementary schools were gathered for 2 years. Data consisted of scores from the reading portion of the Measures of Academic Progress achievement test. Seventy-four students from 2 schools participated in AR for 2 years, while the control group -- 72 students from 2 other schools -- did not participate in AR. Data were analyzed using multiple regression, controlling for the effects of gender, special education status, gifted and talented education participation, Title I participation, and English language learner status. Findings showed the AR program had a significant direct impact on vocabulary score changes from 2009 to 2010 but a significant inverse impact on overall reading and vocabulary score changes from 2010 to 2011. Because the district under study is relying on AR to improve student outcomes, the project for this study was an evaluation report including an evaluation of the effectiveness of AR. An action plan was also provided to investigate the level of AR program fidelity to identify possible reasons for this study's unexpected results. Positive social change implications include providing research-based data to school administration to inform curriculum and professional development and improve student outcomes and school performance targets."--Preliminary page.
