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? Five of 26 HE studies implemented authentic assessments together with collaborative learning activities, while none of the LE studies combined these features. → Valentina Nachtigall 2022
q2 i? Only six studies implemented authentic assessments at all, and five of these showed high effectiveness. → Valentina Nachtigall 2022 (2)

ENA difference graph (Fig. 7) for cognitive effects: HE studies make more links between authentic assessment and collaboration than LE studies, based on the printed counts of studies.
"That is, five out of 26 HE studies implemented authentic assessments and collaborative learning activities in their authentic learning settings, while none of the LE studies combined these two features."

q2 · i? · review · r2
The review notes authentic assessment was rare across the 50 studies, with five of the six studies implementing it showing high effectiveness for cognitive outcomes.
"In fact, only six studies implemented authentic assessments at all, and five of these demonstrated a high effectiveness of authentic learning."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- ENA contrasting-cases analysis shows high- and low-effectiveness studies differ significantly in their design-element and intention networks — a broader claim this one bears on
- Authentic materials and tools in the service of real-life resemblance are a double-edged sword, featuring in both low-effectiveness (cognitive) and high-effectiveness (motivational) settings — related
