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? Control group pretest-to-posttest gains were significant (t(22) = -27.35, p = .00). → Al-Mothana M. Gasaymeh & Osamah M. Aldalalah 2013 q2 i? Experimental group pretest-to-posttest gains were significant (t(28) = -46.91, p = .00). → Al-Mothana M. Gasaymeh & Osamah M. Aldalalah 2013 (2)

Evidence¶

Al-Mothana M. Gasaymeh & Osamah M. Aldalalah. (2013). The Impact of Using SMS as Learning Support Tool on Students' Learning. International Education Studies, 6(10). https://doi.org/10.5539/ies.v6n10p112

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Dependent-samples t-test for the 23-student control section receiving only face-to-face instruction; means rose from 15.21 to 69.34 with "t (22) = -27.35, p = .00".

"the mean of the pretest scores (M = 15.21, SD = 6.12) was significantly different than the mean of the posttest scores (M = 69.34, SD = 13.50), t (22) = -27.35, p = .00."

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Dependent-samples t-test for the 29-student SMS-supported experimental section; means rose from 15.69 to 77.93 with "t (28) = -46.91, p = .00".

"for the experimental group, the mean of the pretest scores (M = 15.69, SD = 6.23) for the participants was significantly different than the mean of the posttest scores (M = 77.93, SD = 9.86), t (28) = -46.91, p = .00."

Discussion¶

Students receiving SMS learning support scored significantly higher on the programming posttest than control students — related
Both experimental and control groups improved significantly from pretest to posttest over the four-month period — a broader claim this one bears on
