Effects of Video Modeling with System of Least Prompt to Teach Telling TimeWebb, Sarah-Ann Katherine 01 January 2016 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to teach telling time to the hour, half-hour, quarter to the hour, and to 5 min to students with austim spectrum disorder (ASD) or other developmental disabilities using video modeling (VM). Two research questions were asked: 1. Is there a functional relation between VM and increases in level and trend for telling time to the hour, half-hour, quarter hour, or 5 min for students with ASD and/or other developmental disabilities? 2. Will the use of the VM help students reach criterion on the task analytic steps for the process of telling time? A multiple probe (days) across participants design was used evaluate the effectiveness of the VM. The results showed student improvement of telling time, but no functional relation was found. The results showed improvement of telling time once System of Least Prompts was added to the VM.

An Exploration of the Role of English Language Proficiency in Academic AchievementWithycombe, Adam 14 January 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between English language proficiency scores as measured by the ACCESS for ELLs and achievement and growth scores on the reading subtest of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). The sample consisted of 2,006 3rd-5th grade English language learners (ELLs) from a large Midwestern school district. Results confirmed that an increase in English proficiency is associated with higher reading achievement scores. The unique variance explained by each of the domain scores (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) on the ACCESS for ELLs supports the use of a weighted composite score for decision making purposes. When considering within-year MAP growth by differing levels of proficiency, a curvilinear trend emerged. The two lowest proficiency groups demonstrated significantly lower reading growth than the two moderate and two highest proficiency groups. The greatest growth was seen by the two groups in the middle of the proficiency spectrum. Given the increased demands on measuring the achievement and progress of all students, including ELLs, and the use of standardized achievement scores for program and teacher evaluation, the results of this study suggest that a dichotomous classification of ELL/non-ELL might not accurately reflect the variability in growth at various levels of English proficiency. Implications for interpreting and using scores by ELLs are discussed.

An Examination of Principals' Leadership and Its Impact on Early Elementary GradesHallissey, Megan 01 May 2017 (has links)
This exploratory, qualitative multiple-site case study examined principals’ expectations of teaching practices and children’s learning for early elementary grade levels (K, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd). Specifically, this study investigated principals’ understanding of developmentally appropriate practices regarding instructional methods, curriculum content, and assessment strategies. This study also examined how these constructs impact leadership decisions and offered contextual examples to exemplify their influence in real-life situations. Data collection included different school configurations (i.e., PreK-1st grade, PreK-3rd grade, K-5th grade, PreK-8th grade), and consisted of multiple data sources – school observations, teacher and principal interviews, questionnaires, teacher evaluations, a video clip, and artifacts. The twelve guidelines of Developmentally Appropriate Practices (DAP) and the Professional Standards of Educational Leaders (PSEL) provided a framework for thematic analysis. Results indicate principals have minimal training in early childhood pedagogy which may impact teacher evaluations and hiring practices. Results also suggest principals’ explicit leadership decisions conflict with DAP (utilization of external rewards, elimination of art, elimination of play, insufficient reporting measures, etc.). These leadership decisions may inhibit student growth, learning, and development including opportunities for self-regulation. Principals’ implicit leadership decisions may also be promoting inappropriate instructional practices (i.e., prescribed curriculum, teacher-directed whole group instruction, lengthy computerized testing, etc.), but data suggests external influences could be a factor as well. Policy implications and practice recommendations are included.

O "nhenhenhém gramatical" como entrave ao letramento nas séries iniciais do ensino fundamentalSouza, Hulda Cyrelli de January 2007 (has links)
Pelo presente trabalho, busca-se analisar as razões pelas quais as crianças das séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, apesar de escolarizadas, não alcançam o letramento, termo entendido como competências e habilidades para o uso da linguagem escrita no entorno social. Ao comparar-se o fazer pedagógico de professores e a bibliografia que defende o processo ensino-aprendizagem da língua materna, no contexto social, nota-se uma dicotomia entre prática e teoria. Enquanto esta aponta para um ensino baseado no trinômio uso → reflexão → uso, de modo que a variedade lingüística do aluno seja, não só respeitada, mas tomada como ponto de partida para as reflexões epilingüísticas, rumo à variedade culta, a prática revela um fazer pedagógico que não leva em conta a linguagem do aluno, e que elege, como ponto de partida e de chegada, a gramática normativa, prática que pode estar referendada pela concepção de que é, pela via da mesma, que se aprende língua ou porque os professores aprenderam assim ou, ainda, porque eles não sabem como romper com a prática tradicional. A análise revela uma escola preocupada com a decodificação, na leitura, responsável por entravar a compreensão do texto, já que trabalhado com vistas à leitura oral (como prova de que o aluno sabe ler) ou com vistas a uma pretensa interpretação, através de questões que privilegiam o conteúdo, o explícito ou, ainda, com vistas ao trabalho com questões subjetivas que não conduzem à leitura do implícito. No que diz respeito à escrita, a escola revela preocupar-se com a codificação, entendida como reprodução, de modo que, ao aluno, não resta outra saída que não a de realizar exercícios de língua, pela via da metalinguagem, ou na forma esporádica de redação, sem que se assuma como sujeito de suas idéias, tendo em vista um interlocutor de fato. Portanto, a escola, que deveria ser a instituição social responsável pelo ensino da linguagem escrita, falha nessa responsabilidade, por valorizar a gramaticalização em detrimento do letrar – passaporte para o exercício da cidadania. / In this work we intend to analyze the reasons why childen in initial levels of elementary school, despite being regular students, are not able to achieve literacy (which is understood as a set of competences and skills for using writen language in social context). When teaching practices and the bibliography concerning mother language teaching and learning are compared, we perceive a dicotomy between practice and theory: while the last one points to the trinomial use → reflection → use, making the learner's linguistic variety not only respected, but taken as a starting point for epilinguistical reflections towards standard language, practice reveals pedagogical procedures which do not consider learner's language, choosing normative grammar as a start and and end. This occurs due to the conception that this is how one learns language, or this was the way teachers learnt it, or because teachers cannot break with traditional practices. This analysis reveals that schools are concerned with decoding in reading, and this is responsible for restraining text comprehension, as the work with texts usually involves aloud reading (as a proof that students can read), or false text interpretation, which occurs through questions that privilege explicit content, or subjective questions that do not lead to implicit content. Concerning to writing, schools are worried with the encoding - term understood as reproduction. As a result, the learner makes language exercises through metalanguage, or in sporadic essay writing exercises, without considering him/herself as a real subject of his/her ideas, or adressing him/herself to a real interlocutor. Therefore, school, which should be the social institution responsible for teaching writen language, fails in this responsability, because it values grammar rather than literacy - which is a passport for an effective exercise of citizenship.
