They took a sampling from a large population of various school districts in the south. Used random selection to select 10 schools to participate in the study. 

The used mail-in surveys using the likert scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree

They determined the response rate of return (40%)

analyze the data]]> 2021-02-11 00:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190238117 Research Techniques https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190238809 -Survey was given to the principals and then principals distributed them by mail
-They chose the 4 point likert scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree
-Distributed the surveys and analyzed the data 
-Principals randomly contacted 10 teachers who teach reading to participate in the survey ]]> 2021-02-11 00:40:56 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190238809 Procedures https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190239208 -Identify question and purpose. “Examine teacher’s expressed perceptions regarding their state’s provisions for instructional materials and professional development opportunities related to state literacy initiatives for K-6 classroom teachers.”
-Select a population. The population is selected by  randomly assigned numbers to school districts within each southern state. The principals from each school selected randomly contacted 10 teachers who teach reading in their schools to participate in the surveys.
- Select instruments to complete the study. The survey was distributed from the principals. 
-Select a scale for results. They selected the Likerts scale.  ]]> 2021-02-11 00:41:13 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190239208 Breakout Session 2 melissacbokine https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190239515 Bullet point some key points to help with discussions]]> 2021-02-11 00:41:25 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190239515 Key Characteristics nicolettemarinelli https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190240169 -The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between reading achievement and parental involvement for sixth grade middle school students
-Non experimental research, the researcher measures 2 variables and assesses the statistical relationship between them 
-Research question: “ Does parental involvement affect the reading achievement of sixth grade students”
- Identification of participants- sixth-grade students Parents/guardians selected based on the fact that their child was apart of the study
-Identified null hypothesis of There is no relationship between parental involvement and the reading comprehension and achievement of sixth grade students
-Data was collected through the use of survey 
-Used descriptive statistics to compare the independent (parent involvement) variable and dependant (reading achievement) variable
-Data collected was analyzed through the use of the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation

    looked for moderately sized middle-to-upper class city, used one in Colorado

    208 girls, 265 boys

    ~assessments in math and reading were conducted for the same students over the course of  4 years (dependent variables)

    -Group 1: Schema based instruction
    Group 2: General strategy instruction
    -The participants were 22 students with learning problems split into two groups
    -Teachers were two doctoral students in special education and two experienced special education teachers
    -Teachers were randomly assigned and switched treatment groups midway
    -Took place in a field setting]]>     2021-02-11 00:46:47 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190247505     Do you have anything to add? melissacbokine https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190247808 We found this article very interesting. Through our discussion we decided that survey research would be the most popular to use in classrooms. 
    Ex. GoogleForms, Rate this Book Survey, Course Evaluation

    We thought it was odd that the research was looking into PDs and reading materials in the same study. This lead us to wonder about the results, since the responses seem to vary greatly. 
    PD Results- 66% did not believe PD opportunities were provided. 34% agreed they had opportunities.
    Reading Materials- 87% agreed that they have reading materials that go with the reading curriculum. Of the remaining 13% , 40% expressed they were not aware materials were available. ]]>     2021-02-11 00:47:00 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190247808     Research Techniques nicolettemarinelli https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190247901 -Matched pair design: comparing two treatments by using same or similar groups
    -Groups were chosen at random (22 students- 18 with LDs; two groups)
    -Strategies were taught with fidelity; Teachers followed a checklist that contained critical instructional steps. 
    -Teaching scripts were piloted prior to employing.
    -Quasi-experimental design (attempts to establish a cause-and-effect relationship)
    -Conducted a two-step analysis process

    2.

    Limitations: Convenience method - only one 6th grade class was examined

    -Each group received instruction three to four times a week; each session lasting an hour

HDK does not take into affect other variables other than age, that is surprising. 
    Results coincided with previous research in showing that the benefit gain in FDK diminished to a great extent. The value of retained skillls in two measures of reading and one measure of mathematics had little practical value.]]>     2021-02-11 00:47:24 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190248408     Do you have anything to add? melissacbokine https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190248700 -Results showed that students in the SBI group performed better than students in the GSI group on all measures of acquisition, maintenance, and generalization ]]> 2021-02-11 00:47:36 UTC https://padlet.com/melissacbokine/hff64z5ixcopgl0e/wish/1190248700
