Eight New WWC Reports Focus on Multisensory Programs for Students with Learning Disabilities

Ω

The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) has released eight new Intervention Reports that review the research on Orton-Gillingham-based programs for students with learning disabilities. Orton-Gillingham teaching sessions are action oriented with auditory, visual, and kinesthetic elements reinforcing one another. The Clearinghouse’s review of the research on Project Read® Phonology, a multisensory language arts curriculum designed for use in a classroom or group setting, found this intervention to have no discernible effects on general reading achievement for students with learning disabilities. The Clearinghouse’s review of a total of 95 studies on the other seven programs -- Alphabetic Phonics, Barton Reading & Spelling System®, Fundations®, Dyslexia Training Program, Herman Method™, Wilson Reading System®, and Orton-Gillingham-based Strategies -- found no studies that fall within the scope of the Students with Learning Disabilities preview protocol that meet WWC evidence standards.
