Does Teacher Oral Reading of Test Items Affect the Performance of Students of Varying Reading Ability?
Homan, Susan P.; And Others
Journal of Educational Research, v79 n6 p363-65 Jul-Aug 1986
Over 4,000 fifth graders were involved in a study to determine the effect of teacher oral reading of test items on good and poor readers. The findings suggested that having teachers read test items aloud during standardized tests yielded higher scores for both groups than having students read for themselves. (Author/MT)
