DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purposes of these Phase I and II projects are to test the feasibility and efficacy of using an interactive multimedia (IM) format for providing comprehensive vocabulary instruction to students with high incidence disabilities (HID). To evaluate the feasibility of this type of instruction software programs will be designed to teach common prefixes, suffixes, and words parts; two research-validated vocabulary learning strategies; and provide multiple opportunities for students to apply their knowledge of word parts and use of learned strategies to high frequency academic vocabulary. Validated instructional principles such as detailed description and multiple levels of practice with feedback will be embedded into each segment of the programs. Segments will include an overview of the strategy, rationale for learning and purpose of using the strategy, detailed descriptions of each steps, video clips of students using the strategy in real testing situations, practice activities, and checks for understanding. To test the efficacy of the programs, revisions to each program will be made based on findings of the feasibility studies. Once revisions are completed, full-blown field tests for each IM program will be completed with approximately 120 middle and high school students with HID. The feasibility and validation studies will focus on (a) usability of the program, (b) student knowledge of the content and skills, (c) student use of the content and skills, (d) social validity of the program, and (e) social validity of the model. This project is relevant to public health because the number of individuals with low literacy skills is substantial. Particularly, many students with high incidence disabilities struggle with various aspects of reading and literacy-related skills. A large number of these students will either drop-out of school or continue to struggle throughout their school careers and into adulthood. Low literacy has been associated with such poor adult outcomes as under- and unemployment, increased criminal activity, and poverty. The empirically validated IM products that will result from this project will address the potentially devastating effects that low literacy can cause in children's lives and in society at large. Since vocabulary development is seen as a bridge between emerging reading skills and comprehension, this project has the potential to help many students expand their literacy skills. The instruction would be used to help them learn common words parts, independently remember meanings of new words, and expand their use of new words, and apply their skills to hundreds of new high-frequency, high-utility words. The instructional programs that will result from this project will be usable as literacy intervention programs based on individual needs. In addition, the proposed programs will serve as a model for the development of future IM programs for individuals with high incidence disabilities.

描述（由申请人提供）：这些第一阶段和第二阶段项目的目的是测试使用交互式多媒体（IM）格式的可行性和功效，以向高发病率障碍的学生（HID）提供全面的词汇指导。为了评估这种类型的教学软件程序的可行性，将旨在教授常见的前缀，后缀和单词部分；两种研究验证的词汇学习策略；并为学生提供多种机会，以将其对单词零件的知识以及对高频学术词汇的使用使用。经过验证的教学原则，例如详细说明和带有反馈的多个练习级别，将嵌入到程序的每个部分中。细分市场将包括概述该策略的概述，学习策略的基本原理，每个步骤的详细描述，学生在实际测试情况下使用该策略的视频片段，练习活动和检查以了解理解。为了测试程序的功效，将根据可行性研究的发现对每个程序进行修订。一旦修订完成，每个IM计划的全面现场测试将完成，大约有120名中学和高中生HID。可行性和验证研究将重点放在（a）程序的可用性上，（b）学生对内容和技能的了解，（c）学生对内容和技能的使用，（d）计划的社会有效性以及（e）模型的社会有效性。该项目与公共卫生有关，因为识字能力较低的个人数量很大。特别是，许多患有高发病率的学生在阅读和识字相关技能的各个方面都挣扎。这些学生中有许多学生要么辍学，要么在整个学校职业生涯中继续挣扎。识字率低与不良的成年成果相关，例如失业率和失业率增加，犯罪活动增加和贫困。该项目将产生的经验验证的IM产品将解决低识字率在儿童生活和整个社会中的潜在破坏性影响。由于词汇开发被视为新兴阅读技能和理解力之间的桥梁，因此该项目有可能帮助许多学生扩大他们的识字能力。该指令将用于帮助他们学习通用单词部分，独立记住新单词的含义，并扩大对新单词的使用，并将其技能应用于数百个新的高频高频，高级单词。该项目将导致的教学计划将是基于个人需求的扫盲干预计划。此外，拟议的计划将作为为高发病率残疾人开发未来IM计划的模型。
