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 Across 12 effect sizes from 10 studies (N = 900), educational robotics had a mean effect of g = 0.497 on STEM learning attitudes (motivation, interest, perception). → Fan Ouyang and Weiqi Xu 2024

Fan Ouyang and Weiqi Xu. (2024). The effects of educational robotics in STEM education: a multilevel meta-analysis. International Journal of STEM Education. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40594-024-00469-4
q3 · i2 · quant-synthesis · r2
Multilevel meta-analysis of the learning-attitude outcome (motivation, interest, perception) from 12 effect sizes in 10 studies. The mean effect was g = 0.497, p < 0.05, with a wide CI (0.023–1.017), described as "a moderate effect".
"The multilevel modeling analysis found a mean effect size of 0.497 (SE = 0.24; p < 0.05; 95% CI was 0.023–1.017), which indicated that educational robotics had a moderate effect on influencing students' learning attitudes in STEM education"
