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 report students using real-time AI tools to generate answers in live sessions, making it difficult to identify the actual actor in DM interactions. → Baoyi W and Khan FU 2026 q2 i? Teachers report students perform better with AI tools available but perform poorly in AI-restricted assessments, raising questions about what has been learned. → Baoyi W and Khan FU 2026

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2

Findings from the DM section of the thematic analysis of 25 teacher interviews. Teachers described "conversational ventriloquism" when students used real-time AI tools or split screens to generate answers, obscuring whose competence is displayed; memory erosion was also reported when AI-restricted tasks revealed poor performance.

"Many teachers perceived their conversations with AI and robots during online classes via DMs, when students used real-time AI tools or split screens to generate answers. It makes it difficult for teachers to understand the actual communication patterns in live sessions."
