Abstract

Flashcard-based and computer-based flashcard interventions both have a wealth of evidence, but tablet-based flashcard interventions have not been as deeply examined. The present study examines tablet-based flashcard Sight-Word and Sight-Phrase interventions for their efficacy and their efficiency. Results showed that both Sight-Word and Sight-Phrase interventions were effective, but the participants spent significantly less time on the Sight-Phrase intervention.
