Subclaims¶

q2 i? Treatment students produced more conceptual diagrams (229, M=3.82) and more 2D-to-3D sketch changes (235, M=3.92) than control students (150, M=2.50; 127, M=2.12). → Isham Shah bin Hassan 2011 q2 i? Synthesis-stage products from the CAD-integrated group scored significantly higher (M=80.6) than conventional products (M=67.1). → Isham Shah bin Hassan 2011 (2)

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Descriptive counts of ideas produced during the synthesis activity in the six-week quasi-experiment; the article concludes the treatment group was more actively involved, reporting no inferential test on these counts.

"Research outcomes shows that conceptual diagram produced for treatment group is 229 (M=3.82) while conceptual diagram produced by control group is 150 (M=2.50). Research outcomes also show that sketching changes from 2D to 3D for treatment group is 235 (M=3.92) while total number of sketching changes from 2D to 3D for control group is 127 (M=2.12)."

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Independent t-test on synthesis products evaluated with an 18-item instrument (alpha 0.9201). The article reports "t (118) = 17.184, significant" in favour of the CAD-integrated group.

"Inferential data shows significant difference between initial idea created in synthesis activity using CAD technology integration (M=80.6) compared to initial idea created in synthesis activity using conventional method (M=67.1), t (118) = 17.184, significant."
