  2. Impact on composition writing of 8th grade students with learning disabilities N= 28 Students w/LD intervention group (gen.ed. classes} 28 Students w/LD control group (gen.ed. classes} 20 typical achieving students Dependent variables Fluency Pretest-Posttest Design Matched students in Control Group Typical –achievers used for descriptive purposes Idea Elaboration Mechanics Attitude

  3. MSS students w/LD POST 126 words Typical 8th grader 117 words Typical 8th grader w/LD 29 words 24 words Non-MSS students w/LD POST Impact on composition writing of 8th grade students with learning disabilities FLUENCY +97 words more than pretest +9 words more than typical 8th grader 5 words less

  4. Impact on composition writing of 8th grade students with learning disabilities IDEA elaboration Measure: Analysis of writing Cued main idea statements{use of transition words} Non-cued main idea statements{did not use transitions} # of supporting details RESULTS Performance of MSS students w/LD approximated that of typical achievers

  5. Impact on composition writing of 8th grade students with learning disabilities Attitude @ Writing Measure: Self-report survey Typical students self-report some fear & considerable “avoidance” Typical students w/LD self-report high levels of both fear & avoidance MSS students w/LD RESULTS No change in avoidance, but marked reduction in fear & increase in empowerment indicators
