serve as the basis for generating hypotheses that are then tested by clinical trials to determine if the specific treatment is, indeed, effective.</p> <p><strong>Evidence-based</strong> interventions are those that have been examined in <strong>actual clinical trials</strong>, the most rigorous being a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial comparing an intervention to a different intervention or to a current intervention. Such a clinical trial provides proof or “evidence” of the effectiveness of an intervention, hence, an evidence-based intervention.</p> <p>Ideally, the reading instruction provided to the dyslexic child should be evidence-based, systematic and delivered in a small group setting. Phonemic awareness and phonics should be taught explicitly. Learning should be <em>active,</em> with frequent teacher-child interactions.
