Reading Comprehension and Fluency

Paper Summary:

This paper outlines a research design geared towards ascertaining what instructional methods, traditional decoding methods or meaning-based instructional methods will best allow struggling readers to increase their reading comprehension and reading fluency. As expected, the paper outlines the research methodology and findings from this study and notes how the findings are corroborated by research previously done in the field. Moreover, the paper suggests that intensive instruction of any kind, even of the more traditional approach, is something which stands to benefit young readers in the formative stages of their development.

From the Paper:

"Discovering what steps allow children to learn effectively is arguably the most important thing that anyone concerned about developing the basic skills of young people can come across. Specifically, the following paper will look at what pedagogical strategies are most effective for teaching children who have average to above-average IQs, yet lag behind their classmates when it comes to reading fluency and to vocabulary acquisition. As one would expect, this exploration is not an easy one and it involves a close reading of the available scholarly material - not all of which is helpful."
