Which Motoric Condition Is Most Effective for Teaching Spelling to Students with and without Learning Disabilities?

Vaughn, Sharon; And Others

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v26 n3 p191-98 Mar 1993

This study compared three motoric conditions (writing, tracing, and computer keyboarding) on the spelling performance of 48 third- and fourth-grade students with and without learning disabilities. No significant effect was found for either group. Interviews revealed that students preferred the computer condition but believed the writing and tracing conditions were more instructive. (DB)
