TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION to ADOLESCENTS with DISABILITY LABELS Nancy Rice, Ph.D
TEACHING READING COMPREHENSION TO ADOLESCENTS WITH DISABILITY LABELS Nancy Rice, Ph.D. University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA ABSTRACT The purpose of this exploratory study was to better understand the impact of reading compre- hension strategy instruction to students with a variety of disabilities, by a collaborative teaching team including a reading specialist and a special educator. Non-fiction articles based on students’ interests and at their instructional reading level were used as the basis of instruction. Students were provided with explicit instruction on comprehension strategy use twice weekly throughout one school year. Results show that all students did make progress using a lexile measure. Implications for reading instruction for students with disability labels are presented. INTRODUCTION The ability to read impacts many aspects in life, including successful leisure, academic, and employment opportunities. This is true for all students, including those students with labels of intellectual disability (ID), Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (EBD), Other Health Impairment (OHI), and Learning Disabilities (LD). While the National Reading Panel recommended that reading instruction should consist of explicit instruction in the areas of phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension (2000), much of the research focused on teaching reading to students with ID, ASD, and EBD has focused on isolated skills, such as sight word recognition, letter-sound correspondence, or fluency (Browder, Wakeman, Spooner, Ahlgrim-Delzell & Algozzine, 2006; Conners et al., 2006; Saunders, 2007, Garwood, Brunstig & Fox, 2014). Only recently, however, have researchers begun to venture beyond these narrow skills. In addition, much of the research has focused on elementary students with disability labels. -

Received: September 2 2013 Accepted: October 10 2013 ABSTRACT Many climatic indices have been presented for investigation of comfort and its impact on human tourism activity which are used in bio-climatic studies. Temperature-physiologic combinational indices which are based upon human body energy balance are more valid than other indices. In the present research, synoptic and climatic stations were used inside and outside Khuzestan province over 1991-2008 and were obtained from irimo.ir. data was obtained from 23 synoptic stations and mean of each of the factors was calculated and PET index and PMT index were used to investigate appropriate time for tourists visit to Khuzestan province. Results showed that climatic comfort period in Khuzestan province is in November and March and March has a more ideal condition than November. KEYWORDS: PET and PMT indices, Khuzestan province, tourists INTRODUCTION Climate is the most important element of our surroundings and is one of the main factors of changing earth face. Floods, slow rivers, jungles, dry areas, and generally all life symbols like water supply, buildings shape, agricultural activities, lifestyle and thousands of other items are directly related to climate and its elements. -

Abstract In this study, characteristics related to reservoir of Sarvak Formation have been studied using well logs, two selected wells from Maroon oil field and specialized GEOLOG 6.7 software with probability statistics method (Probabilistic). Petrophysical parameters were determined from well log diagrams. Accordingly, there are appropriate porosity and water saturation in this horizon, such that the average effective porosity and water saturation are 41.2 and 28.2 %, respectively. Based on Neutron- density cross-plot, it is determined that Sarvak Formation lithology is composed of limestone, dolomite and in some intervals, shale. Also shale volume is low according to CGR charts so that its mean value is 0.55%. *Corresponding Author: ATA Movahed [email protected] 768 | Movahed et al. J. Bio. & Env.

Agroclimatic Zones Map of Iran Explanatory Notes
AGROCLIMATIC ZONES MAP OF IRAN EXPLANATORY NOTES E. De Pauw1, A. Ghaffari2, V. Ghasemi3 1 Agroclimatologist/ Research Project Manager, International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo Syria 2 Director-General, Drylands Agricultural Research Institute (DARI), Maragheh, Iran 3 Head of GIS/RS Department, Soil and Water Research Institute (SWRI), Tehran, Iran INTRODUCTION The agroclimatic zones map of Iran has been produced to as one of the outputs of the joint DARI-ICARDA project “Agroecological Zoning of Iran”. The objective of this project is to develop an agroecological zones framework for targeting germplasm to specific environments, formulating land use and land management recommendations, and assisting development planning. In view of the very diverse climates in this part of Iran, an agroclimatic zones map is of vital importance to achieve this objective. METHODOLOGY Spatial interpolation A database was established of point climatic data covering monthly averages of precipitation and temperature for the main stations in Iran, covering the period 1973-1998 (Appendix 1, Tables 2-3). These quality-controlled data were obtained from the Organization of Meteorology, based in Tehran. From Iran 126 stations were accepted with a precipitation record length of at least 20 years, and 590 stations with a temperature record length of at least 5 years. The database also included some precipitation and temperature data from neighboring countries, leading to a total database of 244 precipitation stations and 627 temperature stations. The ‘thin-plate smoothing spline’ method of Hutchinson (1995), as implemented in the ANUSPLIN software (Hutchinson, 2000), was used to convert this point database into ‘climate surfaces’. -

Town plans considering social, economic, political, and cultural features of local communities have been developed with the aim of supporting housing, especially in emerging economies. In Iran, the ‘Mehr Housing’ Plan has been considered as one of the most relevant strategies for social housing since the 2000s.
