Using a pretest-posttest design, the reported study revealed significant gains in reading comprehension and reading skills among the IS:, group. The appendix of the report contains instructional materials, grouped in 14 comprehension skill training modules, designed to develop metacognitive awareness and reading comprehension. Each module includes graded skills to be targeted weekly, the rationale for teaching them, instructional techniques, specific lesson plans for teacher use, and bulletin board ideas to supplement lessons. In addition, this section contains worksheets and assignments for student use. (MM)

Results indicate that negative comments after incorrect responses greatly facilitated learning while positive comments after correct responses had little effect. To explain the findings, a naturalistic analysis of the use of evaluative expressions in the classroom is advanced. It reveals that positive evaluations were used frequently, indiscriminately and often independently of tne children's behavior. A distinctive feature of the work is its emphasis upon gains to bs made from an integration of traditional experimental methods with ethological analyses of children's behavior. iAuthor)

Two comparison classrooms (n = 40) received comparable instruction on language development and poetry. A battery of assessments given at pretest and posttest showed that the intervention benefited

The report opens with a summary of the project, in which 20 modules-each focusing on a different strategy-were designed and 60 lesson plans were developed. This section also summarizes the evaluation results, which indicated that children in the experimental classes showed significant advantages over control subjects on measures of cloze performance, error detection, and metacognition, and many significant differences due to age and reading ability.
