Project
Description: In an attempt to bridge the opportunity gap that exists prior to schooling, understanding the specific activities, resources, and interactions that take place in the home that encourage higher academic achievement has become a primary concern in the field.
Project
Description: Word knowledge is critical for speaking, reading and writing, yet a substantial proportion of children with language impairment demonstrate poor word learning and consequently poor vocabulary. Because vocabulary has a causal relationship with reading comprehension, this presents a significant national health concern.
Project
Description: The purpose of this efficacy study is to assess whether equation-solving instruction, conducted within the context of word-problem tutoring, leads to improved word-problem solving outcomes. Word-problem proficiency is necessary to demonstrate successful mathematics performance.
Dataset
Part of Project: Early Home Learning Environment
Description: These data are parent reports of survey questions about their beliefs and their children's home learning environments. Data are cross-sectional and include responses from parents with children ranging from 0 - 13 years of age.
Dataset
Part of Project: Profiles of Working Memory and Word Learning for Educational Research (POWWER)
Description: This dataset incudes data from 248 second graders (7- to 8-year-olds) with typical development from three states. One hundred sixty-seven were monolingual English-speaking and 81 were dual Spanish- and English-speaking.
Dataset
Part of Project: Developing connections between word problems and mathematical equations to promote word-problem performance among students with mathematics difficulty
Description: The purpose of this study was to explore the paths by which word-problem intervention, with versus without embedded pre-algebraic reasoning instruction, improved word-problem performance. Students with mathematics difficulty (MD;n304) were randomly assigned to a business-as-usual condition or 1 of 2 variants of word-problem intervention.
