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.

q3 i? A controlled evaluation testing 268 ninth-grade students showed assessment quality was unimpaired by feedback provision, and ACED students showed significantly greater learning of the content compared with a control group. → Shute 2013

q3 · i? · causal · r?

Controlled evaluation of ACED (Adaptive Content with Evidence-based Diagnosis), an adaptive diagnostic pre-algebra system with elaborated feedback, testing 268 ninth-grade students. The chapter reports that "students using the ACED system showed significantly greater learn - ing of the content compared with a control group" and that assessment quality was unimpaired by feedback provision. No effect size is printed.

"Moreover, students using the ACED system showed significantly greater learn - ing of the content compared with a control group. These findings suggest that assessments in other settings"
