This study looks at the effect a phonics based iPad application has on three students' oral reading fluency scores. The results of this study are varied and do not show a functional relationship between the iPad application and correct words per minute (CWPM). Some of the data is promising, and CWPM increased in the desired direction. The iPad application used in this study could be beneficial to some students. More research needs to be conducted in order to prove a functional relationship between iPad applications teaching phonics and reading fluency.
