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? Teachers observe that students produce AI-generated definitions and results they cannot explain in their own words, hindering conceptual knowledge development. → Baoyi W and Khan FU 2026
q2 i? Teachers notice a mismatch where written language is flawless thanks to AI assistance but topic understanding is superficial. → Baoyi W and Khan FU 2026

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Findings from the CLIL section of the thematic analysis. Teachers reported the "bilingual bluff": polished AI-assisted work misrepresents underlying competence, and conceptual hollowing occurs when students cannot elaborate AI-generated terms in their own words.
"Teachers often notice a "mismatch" where a student's written language is flawless thanks to AI assistance, but their understanding of the topic is quite superficial."
