6. Theories & Evidence Theoretic Foundation: Fluency & Automaticity –Assembly & Automation Theory Comprehension enabled by automatic word identification –Information Processing Model Improved automaticity frees up working memory Freeing cognitive resources for more complex action –Phases of Skill Development (Instructional Hierarchy) AccuracyFluencyGeneralizationAdaption

7. Fluency We use fluency because it represents the automation of procedural skills, which confers –Generalization of skills –Permanence of skills –Freeing of cognitive resources for more complex tasks AND, rate-based assessments are more sensitive to growth over short periods

9. 9 Browser-Based Scoring for CBMReading and earlyReading assessments: Teacher gives standardized directions. Teacher provides student with materials to view/read. Student responds Teacher scores “in real time” on computer or laptop or (CBMReading shown in example. Process for most earlyReading assessments is similar in both English and Spanish.) Paper copies for student to read aloud Teacher scores on computer device.

23. Practice Through the training we will show you various ways to provide practice as you train staff to use FAST. You may choose to: –Have participants watch administration videos while using the ORRA to check for standardized administration –Have participants watch you use the online modules while using the ORRA to check your standardized administration –Have participants practice with each other –Have participants practice using the online training practice modules 23
