Professional Development in Phonological Awareness for Early Childhood Educators in Low-Income, Urban Classrooms: A Pilot Study Examining Dosage Effects
Ann Dyslexia. 2023 Jul 29. doi: 10.1007/s11881-023-00289-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProviding high-quality literacy instruction in early childhood may positively affect the long-term outcomes of children from disadvantaged backgrounds. Previous research has shown that educators are generally lacking in their own phonological awareness knowledge and skills which could negatively impact the provision of effective instruction in code-focused early literacy skills. The purposes of this pilot study were to examine the effects of differing dosages of professional development in phonological awareness on early childhood edu...

What do classroom teachers of varying backgrounds know about English spelling?
Ann Dyslexia. 2023 Jul 7. doi: 10.1007/s11881-023-00286-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe ability to encode (spell) is an integral writing skill needed to communicate effectively.

Spelling can also be particularly difficult for students with literacy and phonological-processing difficulties such as dyslexia.

Impacts of cognitive flexibility on central word identification: evidence from poor comprehenders' discourse comprehension of first graders with ADHD
This study aimed to examine the impacts of CF on central word (CW) identification amongst primary school students with ADHD and reading comprehension difficulties (i.e. scores in the ≤ 25th percentile of discourse comprehension but with adequate decoding skills and average decoding performance score within one standard deviation). In addition, the association of CF with CW identification performance, when the CW was located in either the first or second half of sentences, was tested with and without the interference of playing music. This study recruited 104 low-CF and 103 high-CF first grade students with ADHD and readi...
