Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? The basic evaluation techniques described in the 1993 paper remain in use today and apply to the wider range of smart, intelligent, or adaptive educational environments. → Jim Greer & Mary Mark 2015

q2 · i? · review · r2
The authors' retrospective assessment, as a survey paper, of their own 1993 IJAIED article: it "still holds up well today" and its basic techniques remain in use, now applied to adaptive learning environments beyond stand-alone ITSs.
"The 1993 paper in IJAIED on evaluation methods for Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) still holds up well today. Basic evaluation techniques described in that paper remain in use."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Educational data mining and learning analytics on fine-grained learner data is the most actively growing area in evaluation of learning environments — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- The tool-tutor architecture's plug-in vision for off-the-shelf software did not come to pass, but its pedagogical approach remains relevant — related
- A systematic literature review published from 2009 to June 2016 identified 33 primary studies on ITS authoring tools for non-programmer authors out of 4622 retrieved papers — related
