Literacy Program Found to Have Effect
“What Works Clearinghouse: Read 180”
A review by the federal What Works Clearing house of an intervention for adolescent literacy finds that a popular computerized reading program has “potentially positive effects” on student achievement.
Out of 101 Read 180 studies that were reviewed, the clearinghouse found 7 that met its standard-evidence for the impact of the curriculum is medium to large for improving students’ reading comprehension and general literacy achievement
Implementation with fidelity is key!
4. What is Read 180/System 44 READ 180 is a comprehensive reading intervention program proven to meet the needs of struggling readers in transitional Grades 3–12. The program directly addresses individual needs through differentiated instruction, adaptive and instructional software, high-interest literature and non-fiction, and direct instruction in reading, writing, and vocabulary skills.
System 44 is the breakthrough foundational reading program for our most challenged readers in Grades 3–12+. System 44 includes state-of-the-art adaptive reading technology that delivers direct, explicit, research-based instruction as well as engaging, high-interest print materials for student practice in reading, writing, and spelling.
5. Gains and Benefits of Read 180 What are the typical gains and benefits of READ 180?With a collection of tools that enable accelerated growth, effectiveness reports show that READ 180 students consistently out-perform control group students, with achievement double or triple their control group counterparts. Additionally, data from schools across the country show that READ 180 students frequently improve their reading levels by 2-5 years.
