The reading efficiency model: an extension of the componential model of reading     

Høien-Tengesdal I  Høien T 《Journal of learning disabilities》2012,45(5):467-479

The purpose of the present study was twofold: First, the authors investigated if an extended version of the component model of reading (CMR; Model 2), including decoding rate and oral vocabulary comprehension, accounted for more of the variance in reading comprehension than the commonly used measures of the cognitive factors in the CMR. Second, the authors investigated the fitness of a new model, titled the reading efficiency model (REM), which deviates from earlier models regarding how reading is defined. In the study, 780 Norwegian students from Grades 6 and 10 were recruited. Here, hierarchical regression analyses showed that the extended model did not account for more of the variance in reading comprehension than the traditional CMR model (Model 1). In the second part of the study the authors used structural equation modeling (SEM) to explore the REM. The results showed that the REM explained an overall larger amount of variance in reading ability, compared to Model 1 and Model 2. This result is probably the result of the new definition of reading applied in the REM. The authors believe their model will more fully reflects students' differentiated reading skills by including reading fluency in the definition of reading.  相似文献

Rethinking library service to distance education students: analyzing the embedded librarian model     

Sullo E  Harrod T  Butera G  Gomes A 《Medical reference services quarterly》2012,31(1):25-33

Since fall 2009, reference librarians at The George Washington University's Himmelfarb Health Sciences Library have been embedded in online classes through Blackboard within the School of Nursing and School of Medicine and Health Sciences. The authors sought to determine the types of questions asked of the librarian, with the goal of informing future interactions with distance education classes to help develop a standard "protocol" for working with this population of students. Eighty-two questions were categorized and qualitatively analyzed. The findings have prompted librarians to explore tools such as Elluminate Live!, a tool that allows librarians to provide synchronous instruction within the Blackboard environment.  相似文献

本文把大型开放式网络课程(Massively Open Online Course,以下简称MOOC)作为适应移动学习( mLearning)的一种可能的教学方法,这种教学方法建立在与当前学习或教学形式相适宜的基础上.本文呈现了一个MobiMOOC应用的案例研究,该案例使用MOOC形式创建一门课程,研究展示了MOOC和mLearning之间的协同特性,并将当前数字化的协作学习和知识建构这两个理想领域结合在一起.MobiMOOC是聚焦于mlearning、为期六周的网上课程,于2011年的4月到5月之间进行.MobiMOOC是免费开放的课程,有556位学习者加入了课程谷歌群组.课程结束时的调查结果有力地证明了MOOCs和mLearning之间的协同作用.本篇论文对时间和地点的独立性、情境学习、协作学习、潜在的跨学科信息交流,以及应用于网上学习的技术,如社交媒体,移动设备等方面进行了探讨.  相似文献   

Social competence, sense of loneliness, and speech intelligibility of young children with hearing loss in individual inclusion and group inclusion     

Most T  Ingber S  Heled-Ariam E 《Journal of deaf studies and deaf education》2012,17(2):259-272

The study focused on social competence (SC) and perceived sense of loneliness of preschool children with hearing loss (HL) in group inclusion (GI, a small group of children with HL is integrated in a standard classroom) and individual inclusion (II, each child with HL is individually integrated into a standard classroom). The relations between these factors and the child's speech intelligibility were performed. Sixty-four children aged 4-7 years participated: 22 from an II and 42 from a GI. SC, perceived sense of loneliness, and speech intelligibility were evaluated through the use of questionnaires completed by the preschool teachers. The results showed that the SC of children in II was higher than the SC of the children in GI, while interacting with normal hearing (NH) children. In GI, the children's SC with other children with HL was higher compared with their SC with NH children. In both groups, there were relationships between speech intelligibility and SC with NH children. In addition, in the II setting, there were relationships between the speech intelligibility and the perceived sense of loneliness. These relationships were not found in the GI setting. The findings support the need for coenrollment of preschool children with HL and emphasize the crucial impact of speech intelligibility of children with HL on the success of their social enrollment with NH children, already at a young age.  相似文献
