Evidence suggests that reading interventions found to be effective with typically developing children may also be effective with children with developmental disabilities (DD). The Headsprout® Early Reading programme (HER) is an online reading programme accessible at home or at school. Previous research using HER with children with DD has been delivered by trained staff in special school contexts. However, access to trained staff is limited, and many children with DD do not attend special schools. These factors may limit the number of children able to benefit from a potentially effective intervention. Training and involving parents to support their child's reading may increase the number of children who might benefit, and also reflects current education policy. We examined the feasibility of using HER with five children with Down Syndrome in a six‐month parent mediated intervention. Standardised tests of reading ability carried out pre‐post intervention, showed that skills with phoneme segmentation improved following HER, and word reading age improved on average 13 months (range 6 to 20 months). These data are promising and support a rationale for larger evaluation studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

唐氏综合症儿童家长介导的在线阅读干预

有证据表明,对正常发育的儿童有效的阅读干预措施也可能对发育障碍 (DD) 儿童有效。Headsprout® 早期阅读计划 (HER) 是一个在线阅读计划,可在家中或在学校使用。先前对患有 DD 的儿童使用 HER 的研究是由经过培训的工作人员在特殊学校环境中进行的。然而,获得受过培训的工作人员的机会有限,许多患有 DD 的儿童没有上特殊学校。这些因素可能会限制能够从潜在有效干预中受益的儿童数量。培训和让父母参与来支持他们孩子的阅读可能会增加可能受益的孩子的数量,也反映了当前的教育政策。我们研究了在父母介导的六个月干预中对五名唐氏综合症儿童使用 HER 的可行性。阅读能力标准化测试进行了前后干预,结果显示,HER后音素切分技能提高,单词阅读年龄平均提高13个月(范围6至20个月)。这些数据很有希望,并支持进行更大规模的评估研究。[作者摘要]
