The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of reading, writing fluency of the underachieving children and stuttering children and school-aged children and frequency of errors. The participants were 15 underachieving children and 15 stuttering children and 15 school-aged children without disabilities. All participants were required to conduct reading, writing, speaking tasks. First, work for the reading tasks were different among the underachieving children and stuttering children and school-aged children. Second, writing tasks were not different among the groups in the writing fluency, but it was lacking in accuracy, which is stuttering, speaking fluency as well as their language fluency is suggesting the need for diagnosis and intervention. Third, this type of errors of writing tasks is showed higher levels of ommission, substitution, grammatical errors in the underachieving children group. The therapy of reading of stuttering also consider a treatment program that can be configured in the combined writing tasks.

This study aims to explore efficient foreign language learning paradigm with a focus on reading fluency and accuracy. From a perspective of language acquisition in the foreign language context, the priority in the L2 learning between accuracy and fluency has been a very important issue. Fluency becomes an important issue due to many researchers' interests in the L1 and L2 classroom. Although both accuracy and fluency are crucial, the paradigm shift from fluency to accuracy is necessary in the foreign language teaching. In this context, as an alternative methodology for L2 learners' fluency, the extensive reading approach is provided. A number of studies have suggested that extensive reading program could lead to improvement of L2 learners' reading rate and is an effective approach to improving general language proficiency.

This study investigated the effectiveness of reading intervention on at-risk readers from first through third grade. The 34 children below the 20th percentile on an oral reading fluency test participated in the reading intervention program for 15 weeks. They received small group instruction in one 40-minute session per week. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA, paired t-test and effect size for individual cases. Upon completion of the intervention, at-risk first graders showed significantly higher performance in print concept, word recognition, oral reading fluency and reading comprehension. The at-risk second and third graders improved only in oral reading fluency. Most of children who received the intervention demonstrated a large effect in oral reading fluency.

오늘날 학교 현장에서 교실에 비치된 TV를 통한 멀티미디어 자료 제시를 빼놓고는 수업을 진행할 수 없을 정도로 멀티미디어 자료는 큰 역할을 하게 되었고, 그런 관계로 멀티미디어 자료와 아동의 학성성취도의 연관관계를 분석하는 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그 중 멀티미디어 학습자료 제시 유형이 학생의 학업성취도에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석이 있다. 여러 가지 논문에서 애니메이션 학습자료는 텍스트보다 녹음자료와 함께 사용되는 것이 아동의 학업성취에 유리하다는 결론을 내리고 있다. 하지만 정확하게 읽고 텍스트를 해독하는 능력이 뛰어난 아동들, 즉 읽기 유창성이 뛰어난 아동들에게서 어떤 결과가 나오는지 분석된 결과는 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 읽기 유창성이 우수한 집단과 그렇지 않은 집단과의 비교 결과를 통해 과거의 분석된 결과가 그대로 유의미한지를 검증할 것이며 이러한 결과를 통해 좀 더 효율적인 멀티미디어 학습 자료의 쓰임을 제시하는데 많은 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

This study explores reading fluency among elementary school students considering language level and family income(low SES). Forty eight students from 1st to 3rd grades participated in two paragraph reading tasks. Half of the children were from low income family and half of the children had low lexical knowledge. Reading fluency as in the number of correctly read syllables per minute, the total error frequency and error types were used to compare group differences. There were significant differences in the number of correctly read syllables per minute between two income groups and two language groups. There was a significant difference between low income group and non-low income group in total number of errors only when children's lexical knowledge were low. There were no group differences in error types of repetition and omission. Substitution and insertion error seemed to reflect the total error pattern. These results imply the importance of early screening and early involvement for children with low lexical knowledge from low income family. Monitoring and early intervention will support these children's reading development.
