Abstract Details

2017, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Educational Studies.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of duet reading, a reading fluency intervention, for increasing the reading fluency of three elementary school students with disabilities in a public elementary school. A pre-experimental A-B design replicated across three students was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. Each student worked one-on-one with the researcher. Dependent measures included words read correctly per minute on novel grade level passages from AIMSweb and words read per correctly per minute on practiced grade level passages from AIMSweb. In addition, after intervention, students were given grade level passages in science to assess for generalization and data were collected on words read correctly per minute. At the conclusion of intervention, participants (students and their classroom teacher) completed a questionnaire indicating their levels of satisfaction with the procedures and outcomes of the intervention. Results of the study indicated no functional relation between duet reading on reading fluency when reading novel reading passages but do indicate a functional relation between duet reading and reading fluency on repeated readings.
