Project
Description: Science of reading experts have called for increased attention on oral academic language. Specifically, interventions need to integrate multiple dimensions of academic language—word-, sentence-, and discourse-level patterns—to impact listening comprehension.
Project
Description: In research, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) interventions have primarily focused on teaching children to make requests (Logan et al., 2017); however, AAC intervention should not stop there.
Project
Description: The Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk (MCPER) partnered with the University of Houston, The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Texas A&M University, and Florida State University to improve the reading comprehension of students in grades 7 through 12.
Project
Description: Language sampling is a critical component of language assessments. However, there are many ways to elicit language samples that likely impact the results. The purpose of this study was to examine how different discourse types and elicitation tasks affect various language sampling outcomes.
Project
Description: The aim of this research is to create developmentally appropriate, play-based storytelling elicitation procedures to collect language samples of young children aged 18-48 months, tools for evaluating the magnitude and quality of narrative language produced in play-based storytelling sessions, and examine the psychometric properties of these new
Project
Description: The analysis of narratives often accompanies comprehensive language assessments of students. While analyzing narratives can be time-consuming and labor-intensive, recent advances in large language models (LLMs) indicate that it may be possible to automate this process.
