Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Experimental: InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Parent/student/dyads in the treatment condition will be sent program materials via mail and text or email, including smart-speaker hardware, wireless network bridges for wireless network connectivity, and web links to Talk STEM Familia, including set-up video tutorials, and graphic instructions. Intervention activities will take place in participants' homes over the 24-week intervention period and will include using the dual-language Talk STEM Familia technology to receive instruction, practice, and feedback on academic vocabulary.

Group II: Treatment as usualActive Control1 Intervention

Parent/student dyads in this arm will receive treatment-as-usual (the vocabulary instruction regularly provided in their schools). They will receive the TSF technology after post-test data has been collected.
