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? In semi-structured interviews, all eight interviewed EG students reported no difficulty doing experiments, participation in every step of the virtual experiment, and self-confidence on VCL. → Zeynep Tatli & Alipasa Ayas 2012

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Descriptive analysis of semi-structured interviews with students in the experimental group (Table 5 reports 100% (8) answering 'No, never' on difficulty and 100% (8) 'Yes' on self-confidence). The article reports EG students participated in every step of the virtual experiment and enjoyed the daily-life button.
"When we examine the students’ ideas from we can easily noticed that EG students have had no difficulty to perform the experiments via VCL software, they were able to participate every step of virtual experiment, and they have the self confidence to carry out their work on VCL."
