The participants in the study included eighteen students that are diagnosed with language-based learning differences. The study was conducted on a unit covering the Spanish American War, using the first fifteen minutes of class to engage multi-sensory repetition approaches during a thirteen-day study. Participants were assessed using a pre-test/post-test design to compare the data before the intervention was administered and after the intervention was completed. The control group received standard drilling without a multi-sensory component. In addition to the pre and post test data, data were gathered on the percentage of absenteeism during the study. These data were then analyzed via the independent t test. Table 1 depicts the measures of central tendency. Table 2 depicts the independent t analysis. Thus, there was no impact that was statistically significant in terms of the intervention but there was a significant difference in absenteeism.26 pagesen-USThis work may be protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
