Overview

Single-case experimental study demonstrates writing improvements in secondary students with reading difficulties, indicating that integrated strategy instruction can build content knowledge.

Key Points

To evaluate the efficacy of an integrated reading, writing, and knowledge-building Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) intervention on trait-level writing performance in secondary students with reading difficulties.
Implemented a clustered concurrent multiple-baseline single-case experimental design across four curriculum topics with N=12 secondary school students experiencing reading difficulties.
Delivered an integrated literacy intervention employing Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) embedded directly into content-area instruction.
Evaluated student writing outcomes across three staggered clusters using an adapted 6+1 Trait® Writing Rubric evaluated via visual analysis.
Visual analysis revealed immediate performance level increases upon intervention delivery that successfully replicated across all three staggered clusters.
Most students achieved complete non-overlap between baseline and intervention phases across primary writing measures, though the specific magnitude of gains varied across distinct writing traits.
