Abstract

The aim of the study was to examine the accuracy of Estonian teachers' and support specialists' judgements of students' spelling skills and reading fluency and to investigate the provision of special education services to students as a factor influencing teachers' judgements. The sample included 11 classroom teachers, 8 support specialists, and 187 third-grade students. The judgements were collected using scales, and students' literacy skills were assessed using group and individual tests. The results indicated that judgements of reading fluency were less accurate than those of spelling skills. In addition, the provision of special education services influenced teachers' judgements, directing them to identify students in need of help, even if the teacher did not initially assign the student to the low-skilled group. Unexpectedly, teachers' judgements of the skills of students receiving special education services were slightly more accurate than support specialists' judgements.

在判断学生的读写能力时,教师和辅助专家的判断有多准确?特殊教育服务是影响判决的外部因素
这项研究的目的是检查爱沙尼亚教师和辅助专家对学生拼写技能和阅读流利程度判断的准确性,并调查向学生提供特殊教育服务作为影响教师判断的一个因素。样本包括11名任课教师、8名支持专家和187名三年级学生。评语是用量表收集的,学生的读写能力是用小组和个人测试来评估的。结果表明,对阅读流畅性的判断不如对拼写技能的判断准确。此外,特殊教育服务的提供影响了教师的判断,指导他们识别需要帮助的学生,即使教师最初没有将学生分配到低技能组。出乎意料的是,教师对接受特殊教育服务的学生技能的判断比支持专家的判断略准确。
