Early Elementary School Predictors of a Learning Disability in Reading
No full textABSTRACT
WEISS, STACY LYNN. Early Elementary School Predictors of a Learning Disability in Reading. (Under the direction of Cathy Crossland and Barbara Fox).
The purpose of this study was to determine if four kindergarten factors were predictive of the identification of a learning disability with Individual Education Program goals in reading (LDR) at third and fifth grades. Much of the research related to predicting reading difficulty has focused on early elementary school outcomes and included predictors from only one domain, such as reading-related skills (Scarborough, 1998). This study extends the research by combining four factors related to LDR identification into a single study: student age on the first day of kindergarten, social-academic behaviors in the classroom, reading skills, and reading instruction in the sound-symbol relationship. Data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Kindergarten cohort (ECLS-K) were analyzed using logit analyses. Odds, confidence intervals, and probabilities of LDR identification are presented to aid in the interpretation of the results.
Student age on the first day of kindergarten, social-academic behaviors, and reading scores were significant predictors of LDR. Being significantly older in kindergarten (two standard deviations above the mean), having significantly lower teacher ratings of social-academic behaviors (two standard deviations below the mean) and scoring significantly lower on a standardized reading measure (two standard deviations below the mean) resulted in a probability of LDR identification at third grade of .76 and a probability of LDR identification at fifth grade of .64, when including all students. When only considering the students who were in kindergarten for the first time at the beginning of the study, age at time of kindergarten entry, social-academic behaviors, and reading scores continued to be significant predictors of LDR at third grade. At fifth grade, reading and social-academic behaviors independently were significant predictors of LDR.
The frequency of kindergarten instruction in the sound-symbol relationship was not a significant predictor of LDR at third or fifth grades. Kindergarten teachers reported similar and frequent instruction related to matching letters to sounds, working on phonics, and identifying letters of the alphabet. Additional research is needed to determine if other instruction-related factors such as intensity or method of instruction are significant predictors of LDR. Study limitations and areas for additional research based on these findings are discussed.

D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Economics, 2018Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis. "Some pages in the original document contain text that runs off the edge of the page"--Disclaimer Notice page.Includes bibliographical references.In this thesis, I use rich individual- and household-level data to explore the impact of different forms of financial innovation on development outcomes in Africa. Chapters 1 and 2 utilize data from a digital lender that provides credit over mobile phones. Chapter 1 presents novel evidence on the magnitude of consumer liquidity constraints and the relative importance of the various forms of asymmetric information that may contribute to them. I find that borrowers almost always take out the maximum credit line available to them, consistent with short-term liquidity constraints. I then use quasi-experimental variation in credit policies across individuals and time to estimate the relative magnitude of selection and incentive effects among new borrowers. I find that information asymmetries go a long way toward explaining high observed default rates. Chapter 2, my job market paper, explores the impact of dynamic incentive schemes on borrower behavior in the digital credit market. I use a series of quasi-experiments induced by policy nonlinearities to estimate the effect of progressive lending policies on borrower repayment decisions. I find that new borrowers who receive a larger initial loan are more likely to default on that loan. By contrast, repeat borrowers who receive a larger loan (relative to their previous loan) are actually less likely to default. I provide evidence that this reflects a strategic repayment motive, whereby borrowers repay in order to get access to larger loans in the future. Chapter 3, written with Yu Shi, uses household-level data from a panel survey in Nigeria to explore the relative importance of formal versus informal finance. We find that informal financial markets remain important and are quite effective in enabling consumption smoothing by lower-income households and businesses in Nigeria.by Stacy Carlson.Ph.

To learn more about the collaborative grazing management that occurs across much of Colorado's rangelands, we are conducting an investigation of partnerships between private ranchers and government-owned land managers along the Front Range. Our research process addresses the sustainability of these rangelands as complex social-ecological systems where livestock production and natural resource conservation are woven together in a tapestry of management, culture, and science. Recent literature indicates that scientific research engaging the ecological, economic and social elements of grazing management is lacking. Therefore, our study reflects a holistic model evaluating these three components of sustainability (ecological, economic, and social) to answer our overarching question: Can strategic grazing partnerships on multi-use government-owned landscapes achieve the dual goals of assisting land management agencies with natural resource conservation, and ranchers with maintaining sustainable beef production? We are exploring multiple themes in alignment with the three components of sustainability: soil health, plant biodiversity, forage nutritive quality, ecosystem services, and socio-cultural values. System dynamics modeling will be used to examine relationships and interactions among these themes within and across our study sites. System dynamics modeling will allow us to apply qualitative and quantitative context-specific variables to generate and visualize management alternatives that will ultimately aid in adaptive and integrated decision-making. Our intention is to produce results that are meaningful to stakeholders, solution-focused, and application-oriented
How instruction in student-generated questioning enhances reading comprehension in elementary students
No full textThe research question addressed in this project was, how instruction in student-generated questioning enhances reading comprehension in elementary students? It documents student progress made in asking higher-order questions while reading. The goal of the capstone was to use the strategy of asking questions to enhance reading comprehension for deeper understanding of text. Different levels of questioning were modeled, practiced, and integrated into whole-class discussion as well as in literature circles. The author describes both accomplishments and disappointments in implementing the reading strategy. She concludes that while reading comprehension tests only showed a snapshot of a moment in time, student samples of questions illustrated time after time that meaningful discussion about literature was created
Factors that affect the employability of transition–age individuals with severe intellectual disabilities: rehabilitation providers’ perspectives
No full textThe purpose of this study was two-fold. It first aimed to facilitate a more in-depth understanding of what rehabilitation providers believe to be the critical job and job-related skills and vocational experiences needed by transition-age students with severe intellectual disabilities. It also attempted to gather rehabilitation providers’ perspectives on how other factors affected their decisions about whether to provide employment services to a student with severe intellectual disabilities. Qualitative interviews with rehabilitation providers were used to explore these two areas. The most important skills identified by participants were social skills and skills related to motivation and work ethics, whereas the most important experience identified was participation in paid work experiences prior to exiting school. Factors identified as influencing rehabilitation providers’ decisions about employment services for students with severe disabilities included student, family, school, rehabilitation provider, and community factors.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I only', the embargo will last until 2017-05-01The student, Julie Pickens, accepted the attached license on 2015-04-21 at 16:54.The student, Julie Pickens, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2015-04-21 at 16:59.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2015-04-23 at 07:36.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #7999 on 2015-07-22 at 14:18:29Made available in DSpace on 2015-07-22T22:33:43Z (GMT).

Small-scale urban agriculture in northern Colorado
No full text2022 Spring.Includes bibliographical references.Urban agriculture involves production, processing, and marketing of food and related products in urban and peri-urban areas for local consumption (Pearson et al., 2010). The purpose of my qualitative study was to explore urban agriculture in Northern Colorado using a phenomenological approach focusing on small producers. I interviewed four farmers from Larimer County, CO, with two to forty-seven years of urban agricultural experience. Farmers supplied representative photographs of their operations. The motivation for farming was self-interest, food, conventions, and income. Practitioners learned to farm through experimentation, formal, and informal approaches. Learning was experiential and self-directed. Participants experienced both challenges and rewards during farming. All the farmers would farm again with minimal changes to their current practice. This exploration highlighted urban agriculture's role in providing healthy food, fulfillment, and generating income despite challenges. The findings demonstrated a gap in utilization of educational resources within the community, which could have further improved the farmer's productivity. Examining the scope of urban agriculture would facilitate a needs analysis particularly for complementary adult education programs. Moreover, integration of small-scale urban agricultural production into the regional economic development plans and related business opportunities remains unexplored. Finally, it is critical to identify ways that local governments can support small producers through legislative and other tools
