Tuckwiller, Elizabeth D.; Pullen, Paige C.; Coyne, Michael D. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2010
The purpose of this article was twofold: (1) to explore the feasibility of the regression discontinuity design (RDD) in response-to-intervention implementation research and (2) to expand upon the limited research on vocabulary instruction for kindergarten students who are at risk for reading failure due to limited vocabularies. This pilot study…

Santoro, Lana Edwards; Coyne, Michael D.; Simmons, Deborah C. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2006
In this article, we describe the development and evaluation of a beginning spelling intervention for young children at risk of reading disability. We first summarize the literature that supports beginning spelling as an ideal method for strategically integrating the beginning reading big ideas of phonemic awareness and alphabetic understanding. We…

Prevention and Intervention in Beginning Reading: Two Complex Systems.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Coyne, Michael D.; Kame'enui, Edward J.; Simmons, Deborah C. – Learning Disabilities: Research & Practice, 2001
This article addresses two sets of organizing principles to guide prevention and intervention in beginning reading: (1) the complexity in our alphabetic writing system, and (2) the complexity in our schools. The first set is related to instructional design, while the second set is related to a schoolwide model. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
