简要总结
This project aims to explore the feasibility and efficacy of a 6-week, intensive summer literacy intervention provided to children in 1st-3rd grades.
详细描述
- Purpose/objective:
To determine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a 6-week literacy summer camp for improving language and literacy outcomes of children with identified language or literacy difficulties. 2. Methods:
This intervention will be provided by students in the speech and hearing clinic on SDSU's campus. The summer clinical sessions last for 8 weeks. Week 1 will be used for the pre-testing of each participant's baseline language (morphological awareness, phonological awareness, morphosyntax, vocabulary, and narrative language skills) and reading (letter knowledge, nonword reading, reading fluency and reading comprehension). In weeks 2-7, the intervention will take place. This will consist of 3, 3-hour sessions per week. Finally, in week 8, the investigators will conduct post-testing of children's language and reading skills. 3. Subjects:
The investigators will recruit a maximum of 12 students who are in the summer after Kindergarten, first, or second grade. The investigators will be recruiting students from the local community who either a) have IEPs with eligibility of SLI or SLD-reading or b) have documented parent or teacher concern for reading and/or language skills as determined by parent questionnaire. 4. Planned analyses:
Planned analyses will include analysis of improvement in each of the language and reading skills from pre-test to post-test. The investigators will also include probes of performance of reading skills to allow for single subject analysis. The investigators will develop fidelity rubrics to explore the fidelity of intervention implementation and will analyze how fidelity relates to individual-child-level improvement.
