Q

Literacy

A

Literacy is a fundamental goal of American education. Because of its importance, it has been defined in many ways and its meaning has changed over time (National Council of Teachers of English, 1996)
1800’s- recognizing and pronouncing words
1920’s- reading passages silently and answering comprehension questions

Q

International Dyslexia Association (IDA) definition of Dyslexia

A

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that is neurobiological in origin. It is characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and decoding abilities. These difficulties typically result from a deficit in the phonological component of language that is often unexpected in relation to other cognitive abilities and the provision of effective classroom instruction. Secondary consequences may include problems in reading comprehension and reduced reading experience that can impede growth of vocabulary and background knowledge (Lyon, Shaywitz, & Shaywitz, 2003)

Not a skill with a well defined scope of knowledge
Includes higher level mental processing: thinking, reasoning, imagining, and interpreting
Not easily measured

88
Q

Reading Assessment

A
  • High stakes reading assessments reduce reading ability (decoding and comprehension) to a specific standard score or grade level
  • Lack of reading proficiency in early elementary reflects difficulty learning to decode
  • Lack of reading proficiency in later school years reflects difficulty understanding and interpreting words, sentences, and texts
89
Q

Narrow view of reading

A
  • Restricts the scope of reading to word recognition alone
  • Comprehension and reasoning will remain educational goals but be taught in domain-specific content (American History, biology/chemistry, geometry/algebra, etc.)
