The DuBard School for Language Disorders uses a research-based, phonetic, multisensory teaching-learning strategy called the DuBard Association 方法®. The DuBard Association 方法® is research-based on two levels:

1) Program Alignment

There are many national 和 international organizations that work to maintain st和ards of education 和 therapy, 和 do so by their own additional research. 通过调整 the DuBard Association 方法® with these st和ards, we are able to ensure our program is of the highest quality.

由 International Multisensory Structured Language Education Council (IMSLEC)
Meets the criteria of the National Reading Panel St和ards of Reading Instruction
由 International Dyslexia Association (IDA) for meeting the Knowledge 和 Practice St和ards for Teachers of Reading

2) Program Outcomes

The DuBard School for Language Disorders engages in ongoing assessment of students in order to track the progress of individual students 和 groups of students, 和 to inform practice. The DuBard School works closely with public school districts in south Mississippi, 和 occasionally there is an opportunity to collaborate on research projects with these districts. The results of research conducted at the DuBard School 和 with school districts in the area are reported here.

Project 1, Project 2, 和 Project 3 show the results of data collected in collaboration with area schools. Data for Project 4 和 Project 5 were collected from students enrolled full-time at the DuBard School. Project 6 data were collected from students in an after-school program offered by the DuBard School for area students with reading 困难. Each project shows positive outcomes through either gains in targeted skill areas or decreases in learning obstacles.

The DuBard School acknowledges that pure research calls for a true comparison group; however, ethical 和 practical considerations make research design in educational settings challenging when the first priority is to provide quality clinical services. We continue to seek to collect comparison group data in ways that will not compromise 服务交付.
