Hearing Beginning Readers Read: Problems of Relating Practice to Theory in Interpretation and Evaluation.
Francis, Hazel
British Educational Research Journal, v13 n3 p215-25 Oct 1987
Discusses the practice of listening to children read aloud as a method of improving reading skills. Demonstrates that the phenomenon is not a simple, fixed treatment to be assessed on limited dependent variables. Concludes that in current evaluations there is insufficient analysis of the practice to do justice to possible effects and to help interpret various findings. (Author/GEA)
