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.
q3 i2 The summary effect size is 0.94 for sample sizes of 1-30 students versus 0.83 for more than 30 students. → M. Rais Ridwan 2022

q3 · i2 · quant-synthesis · r2
Moderator analysis by class/sample size in the random-effects meta-analysis (Table 4), with effect sizes of "0.94" for 1-30 students and "0.83" for more than 30 students. The article reports "learning with cooperative models is more effective than learning with more than 30 students when the sample size is 1 -30."
"the effectiveness of learning using the cooperative model on VHS student learning outcomes dependent on class size was 0.94 [95% -CI: 0.79; 1.09] and 0.83 [95% -CI: 0.46; 1.19]"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Cooperative learning exercises were rated highly useful by >94% of students and were associated with roughly doubled class attendance — related
- Cooperative learning has a medium positive effect (0.89) on vocational high school students' mathematics learning outcomes compared with conventional learning — related
- Test questions reinforced by Warm Up questions or Cooperative Learning activities showed higher average normalized gains (~52%, ~60%) than questions discussed in class only (~15%) — related
- Two years of BCIRC exposure is associated with larger reading gains than one year (effect size 0.87 significant versus 0.33 non-significant) — related
- The cooperative learning component's added benefit over direct instruction alone with CIRC materials was not statistically significant on main idea identification — related
