The self-correction method included two major components: (a) error imitation and correction and (b) repeated practices to mastery. The traditional method used spelling words in a variety of ways, which included activities such as: writing each spelling word five times, putting each word in alphabetical order, defining each word, and using words in context (sentence form). The spelling performances included learning to spell a word and transferring that knowledge to other subjects in written form. Students scores of weekly, bi-weekly recognition posttest and generality measures were compared.</p><p>Results of weekly posttest indicated that the self-correction method was more effective in improving the spelling performance of two out of three students. Two participants learned more words during the self-correction method while one participant learned one more word in weekly posttest of the traditional condition. There were no significant difference among student participants in the generality measures. Two out of three students generalized an average of one more word in the self-correction, while one student generalized one more word in the traditional condition.</p> 1996 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1298990197 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1298990197 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
