Murphy, Erroleen; McLaughlin, T. F. – Reading Improvement, 1990
Examines the effects of a tactile and kinaesthetic teaching method on the spelling performance of a special education student. Finds improved accuracy in weekly tests but modest long-term retention when tracing target words with the index finger of the dominant hand. Finds overall improved scores when tracing was combined with dictation. (KEH)
