All participants (N=40) reside in the suburban multicultural southeast Florida community and experience learning and social difficulties that often interfere with their learning abilities. It was hypothesized that individualized brain-based mastery learning instruction would yield improved test scores in core academic achievement and social and life skills areas. The results of this study, based on the pre-and post- scores of the Woodcock-Johnson Third Revision Achievement Test Forms A and B (WJ-III) administered by an independent licensed psychologist showed that the secondary level participants produced statistically significant academic improvement in reading fluency. Teachers completed the Social Skills Rating System-Teacher (SSRS) to assess students\u2019 social and life skills and performed their duties without knowledge of who was participating in the study. The study results showed that all participants attained statistically significant gain score improvement in their development of social and life skills. Subsequent statistical analyses indicated that 99.76 % of the participants produced positive core academic achievement gains in reading, writing, and mathematics and 93.33% of the participants showed positive growth in social and life skills. The positive results of this study in such a short duration of time demonstrates the effectiveness and benefit of providing a highly specialized and individualized brain based mastery learning program to elementary and secondary students with LD, ADD, and ADHD." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LC4713.4.A34 2007" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2007" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LC4713.4.A34 2007_RiconMercedes" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001403/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Ricon Abelleira, Mercedes" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2007.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 145-168)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "xiv, 177 leaves" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Mercedes Ricon.
