Area of Science:

  • Special Education
  • Assistive Technology
  • Literacy Intervention

Background:

  • Students with intellectual disability often face challenges in word recognition.
  • Traditional sight word interventions may not fully address phrase-level reading acquisition.
  • Few studies have explored technology-based approaches for teaching sight phrases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the efficacy of a tablet-based flashcard intervention for teaching sight phrases.
  • To assess the acquisition of sight phrases in students with intellectual disability.
  • To explore the use of technology for literacy support in inclusive classrooms.

Main Methods:

  • A multiple-baseline design across word sets was employed.
  • Two students with intellectual disability participated in the study.
  • An iPad flashcard program was used, involving seeing, saying, and hearing phrases.

Main Results:

  • Both students demonstrated rapid acquisition of previously unknown sight phrases.
  • The intervention was effective across three distinct sets of phrases.
  • Students successfully learned to read sight phrases using the tablet-based method.

Conclusions:

  • Tablet-based flashcard interventions can be effective for teaching sight phrases to students with intellectual disability.
  • This approach supports literacy development for students with intellectual disability in general education settings.
  • Technology offers a viable tool for enhancing reading skills in inclusive educational environments.
