Metacognition As A Theoretical Construct: Its Nature, Origins, And Application In The Secondary Reading Program, Karen Collinge Carroll

Developing Reading Strategies: Teachers’ Responses To Miscues, Valori Dawn Hansen

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Research has suggested that many low-achieving readers may be receiving feedback to their miscues which is not helpful and is very different than that being provided high-achieving readers. The assumption seems to be that if teachers respond to low achieving readers in the same manner as high-achieving readers, then they would begin to see the low-achieving readers using the more effective strategies similar to those used by the high achieving readers. Yet the question remains of how we systematically develop effective feedback strategies in teachers. Specifically, this study proposed to answer the question: What is the effect of a four-part …
