碩士 === 華梵大學 === 工業工程與經營資訊學系碩士班 === 103 === The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of sustained silent reading (SSR) on reading comprehension, reading attitude, and ability of word recognition of elementary school students in the 5th grade. Students from two classes participated in the experiments. One class, as the experimental group, was implemented SSR every day, while the other class, as the control group, received conventional teaching courses. 1200 minutes of reading experiments were conducted by 15 minutes daily, 5 days a week for 16 weeks. The results are summarized as follows: 1. SSR can effectively improve the students’ “reading motivation”, “ability of reading comprehension”, but not “ability of word recognition”. 2. The students’ gender and the intensity of internet usage do not have significant difference in “reading motivation”, “ability of reading comprehension”, and “ability of word recognition” after implementing SSR. 3. Students give positive comments on SSR.
