The Problems of Educating San Juan Students with Learning...

Education San Juan Students with Learning Disabilities Quantitative Method Preliminary Study Title: Description of the local problem. (The local problem that prompted the study is clearly defined and is discussed in terms of the local setting and the larger population or education situation): The local problem is the learning disabilities of students in Grade Eleven at a private San Juan School that prevent them from performing at their expected SAT reading level. The Education Testing Services Secondary Level English Proficiency Test (Educational Testing Service, 2008), expects students to have a demonstrated adequate level of Literal Comprehension and Inferential Comprehension (New Hampshire Parents Information Reading Center, n.d.). Literal Comprehension means understanding the factual information within test; Inferential Comprehension means understanding the relationship between the readers personal experience and the text (New Hampshire Parents Information Reading Center, n.d.). As it stands, these students lack fundamental reading skills according to a nationally recognized standard and are quite possibly ill-prepared for higher education or other post-school life. In addition, students in grades 9, 10 and 12 might also be deficient in reading comprehension, which will harm them in school and in their lives beyond school.
