The purpose of this paper is to survey the research of the past ten years on corrective or remedial reading programs. In the literature, various definitions are given to corrective reading and remedial reading programs, but in this paper no distinction will be made between the two terms. Both terms refer to a plan of corrective instruction and treatment for the disabled reader, generally outside of the regular classroom setting.

The Badness Of Bad Words, Louis Foley Apr 1973

The Badness Of Bad Words, Louis Foley

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Everybody knows-and feels as if he had always known-all the common "bad" words. We all know them because they have been very effectively taught. The things that we remember from our earliest years are the things connected with emotional experiences. The bad words make unforgettable first impressions, not only because typically they are uttered very distinctly and emphatically but because they are outbursts of strong feeling. Also from the beginning they are likely to be associated with startling incidents or confrontation with unpleasant people that would shock us anyhow. So they stick firmly in our memory, whether or not we …

The need for a multi-disciplined approach to the diagnosis and treatment of the disabled learner has been given lip service for many years by various departments on university campuses. The first multi-clinic team put this dream into reality at Western Michigan University in the spring of 1972. Subsequently there have been five multi-clinic cases.

A few years ago a reading consultant in a large high school was given a problem to solve. Students in the school averaged two years above the national norms in reading performance, as shown by an all-school Nelson-Denny Reading Comprehension Test. Yet, social studies teachers and English teachers told the administration and the reading consultant that these students were not able to read their textbooks effectively, were in serious trouble on examinations, and did not seem to show clear understanding of the ideas presented for class discussion. Teachers who felt they had to maintain a certain minimum level of academic …

Many early elementary classroom teachers have difficulty finding reading material that will supplement a basal reader. Because the thoughts and actions of young children often revolve around their own personal interests and experiences, classroom teachers are bombarded by students anxious to relate what to them are momentous happenings. Children are vitally concerned with themselves; why not take advantage of this enthusiasm and build it into a learning experience? Why not have your children write their own stories?

Colleges and universities are presently launching a broad-based attack on improving their pre-service programs in the teaching of reading. The need for such an attack was evidenced by the first Harvard Carnegie Study (1) which disclosed inadequacies in pre-service reading courses. This report also revealed the failure of colleges to provide for practical approaches to the teaching of reading by prospective teachers.

"Anyone can read" is the attitude of some people, even people who should know better. The fallacy of such an attitude is realized with the following analogy. Aristotle is known to have said, "One learns to be a good flute player by playing the flute. One also learns to be a poor flute player by playing the flute." In the same way, one learns to be a good or poor reader by reading.
