Analyzing a Running Record An Instructional Module for Reading Teachers
What is a Running Record? • How is it used? • What information will it give me? • How do I go about analyzing a Running Record?
Anomalous momentum transport has been observed in Alcator C-Mod tokamak plasmas. The time evolution of core impurity toroidal rotation velocity profiles has been measured with a tangentially viewing crystal x-ray spectrometer array. Following the L-mode to EDA (enhanced D) H-mode transition in both Ohmic and ion cyclotron range of frequencies heated discharges, the ensuing co-current toroidal rotation velocity, which is generated in the absence of any external momentum source, is observed to propagate in from the edge plasma to the core with a timescale of the order of the observed energy confinement time, but much less than the neo-classical momentum confinement time. The ensuing steady state toroidal rotation velocity profiles in EDA H-mode plasmas are relatively flat, with V ~ 50 km s-1, and the momentum transport can be simulated using a simple diffusion model.
Three Cueing Systems • Meaning • Structure • Visual
Consider an Analogy: Reading can be like making a great soup. Does Not = +
Does it need to simmer longer? Should I add more spices? Or broth?
+ Does it make sense? + Does it sound right? + Does it look right? + = Reading
What is a Running Record? A running record is an assessment tool used to pinpoint which cueing systems a struggling reader is neglecting while reading.
Taking a Running Record • The child reads a book or passage aloud. • The teacher uses a coding system of marking conventions to record the students words and actions while reading. • Afterwards the teacher analyzes the running record for types of errors or miscues. • Miscues and Self-Corrections are labeled Meaning, Visual, or Structure.
What is considered an error? • The student substitutes another word for a word in the text • The student omits a word • The student inserts a word • The student has to be told a word by the person administering the running record
What is a Self-Correction? A self-correction is when a student has made an error but then fixed the error by reading it correctly.
Marking Conventions Click on the link below to view the marking conventions for running records. http://www.msu.edu/~jonesreb/MarkingConven.doc
Cueing System Review • Meaning (M) Does it make sense?Meaning is part of the cueing system in which the child takes his or her cue to make sense of text by thinking about the story background, information from pictures, or the meaning of a sentence. These cues assist in the reading of a word or phrase. • Structure (S) Does it sound right?Structure refers to the structure of language and is often referred to as syntax. Implicit knowledge of structure helps the reader know if what he or she reads sounds correct. • Visual (V) Does it look right?Visual information is related to the look of the letter in a word and the word itself. A reader uses visual information when he or she studies the beginning sound, word length, familiar word chunks, etc.
Example Problem #1 The dog ran beyond the shed. What cueing system is the student using? M: Does it make sense? (Yes) S: Does it sound right? (No) V: Does it look right? (Sort of) runned
Example Problem #2 The dog ran beyond the shed. What cueing system is the student using? M: Does it make sense? (Yes) S: Does it sound right? (Yes) V: Does it look right? (No) behind
Example Problem #3 The dog ran beyond the shed. What cueing system is the student using? M: Does it make sense? (No) S: Does it sound right? (No) V: Does it look right? (Yes) began
Please Remember… When analyzing a miscue, use only the text up tothe point of error to determine which cueing systems are being used. Anything beyond the miscue is information that will skew your analysis.
Problem #1 makesure fast “I need someone to measure how far I can jump.” Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The sentence up to this point would make sense. You may also notice that the phrase would also be structurally sound. The reader is neglecting the visual cueing system.
Yes. You are correct The sentence up to this is structurally sound. You may also notice that the phrase also makes sense. The reader is neglecting the visual cueing system.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error, the phrase makes sense and is structurally sound. Please try again.
Problem #2 Raccoon looked at her shiny new medal and felt proud. per R Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The reader is using the visual cueing and neglecting meaning and in essence structure as well.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error. The phrase does not make sense. Please try again.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice If you read up to the point of error. The phrase does not sound grammatically correct. Please try again.
Problem #3 Down the side of the hill rushed the rock, faster and faster until…crash! he fast Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The reader is using meaning up to this point. Please note that the phrase is also structurally sound. The reader is neglecting visual cues.
Yes. You are correct The reader is using structure up to this point. Please note that the phrase also makes sense. The reader is neglecting visual cues.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. The reader is not using the visual cues provided. Please try again.
Problem #4 The rock stopped at the bottom of the hill, not far from the river. s-st-opped SC R R fair rever/reever SC Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The reader is using visual cues and is not attending to meaning.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error. The phrase does not make sense. Please try again.
Sorry. Not the best choice. Structure is debatable here. However there is a more obvious choice. Please try again.
Problem #5 Lizard lost so much weight that he began to get skinny. wite Meaning Structure Visual
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error. The phrase does not make sense. Please try again.
Sorry. Not the best choice Structure is debatable here. However there is a more obvious choice. Please try again.
Yes. You are correct The reader is using visual cues but not meaning. Structure is debatable in this example.
Problem #6 “Oh, no!” he said sadly. suddenly Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The reader is using meaning up to this point. Please note that the phrase is also structurally sound. The reader is neglecting visual cues.
Yes. You are correct The reader is using structure up to this point. Please note that the phrase also makes sense. The reader is neglecting visual cues.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. The reader is using some visual clues but is not attending to all the letters. Please try again.
Problem #7 “I may be as thin as a stick… R many tine/tiny Meaning Structure Visual
Yes. You are correct The reader is using visual cues but not meaning or structure.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error, the phrase does not make sense. Please try again.
Sorry. Incorrect Choice. If you read up to the point of error, the phrase is not structurally sound. Please try again.
Instructions • Go to the following website to print out Michelle’s running record. http://www.msu.edu/~jonesreb/TigerPrint1.doc
Instructions Continued • Notice the letters M S V on the right hand side of the paper. These letters stand for Meaning, Structure, and Visual. • On an actual running record the user records the cueing systems that the reader is using to decode an unknown word. • The student may be using one or more cueing systems to decode. • The cueing systems being used are recorded by circling the appropriate letter: M S or V
