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 i? Implementation analyses demonstrated surprisingly low levels of uptake in treatment schools, declining from 55% of teachers in the Unique Class in year one to 44% in year two. → Vaden-Kiernan 2015

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Implementation study using classroom observations, interviews, and surveys with teachers and key staff such as curriculum trainers. In year two only 44% of teachers in treatment schools were in the Unique Class; limited contamination occurred in two schools in year one (3 teachers) and one school in year two (4 teachers), all within the same district.
"Implementation analyses demonstrate surprisingly low levels of uptake in treatment schools. In Year One, only 55% of teachers in treatment schools showed evidence of implementing both the unique and essential components of EM."
