Abstract

Research Findings: The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine the efficacy of a practice-based approach to professional development for family child care providers working in low-income communities. This approach included a literacy coaching component that anchors knowledge in practice. One hundred and twenty-eight family child care providers were randomly assigned to three groups: a language and literacy course plus coaching, the course only, and control. Quantitative results revealed that providers who received the course plus coaching experienced statistically and educationally significant improvements in their literacy practice compared to the other two groups. Qualitative data described specific areas in early literacy that were improved as a result of this professional development intervention. Practice or Policy: Implications of these findings for child care policy and professional development programs for family child care providers are discussed

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
