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? Content analysis of open-ended answers found seven outcome categories in the experimental group versus three in the control group, with higher frequencies in the experimental group. → Derman et al. 2016
Evidence¶
Derman et al. 2016¶
Aysegul Derman, Elvan Sahin, Esme Hacieminoglu. (2016). Does Outdoor Education Make any Difference in Environmental Literacy of Pre-service Classroom Teachers? INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SCIENCE EDUCATION, 11(15), 8491-8506. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
q2 · i? · causal · r2
Content analysis of answers to the open-ended Environmental Education Outcome Evaluation Survey questions. Table 7 prints frequencies such as knowledge about environmental issues (44 experimental vs 9 control) and concern in environmental issues (45 experimental vs none reported for control).
"the outcomes the participants had in the experimental group are quite rich (a, b, c, d, e, f, g), and there are more participants who had these outcomes than those of the control group. On the other hand, in the control group in which the traditional lecturing method was used, the outcomes are more limited (a,d,g) and the participants who had outcomes are quite a little."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Experimental-group participants named far more varied environmental issues and gave more detailed answers than control-group participants — related
- All pre-service teachers planned to teach environmental education, but only the experimental group specified concrete student-centered methods and outdoor activities — related
- An outdoor education program produced higher post-test environmental attitudes, uses and concern than traditional lecturing among pre-service classroom teachers — a broader claim this one bears on
