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? Leinhardt and Greeno found an expert's opening homework review took about one-third less time than a novice's while accomplishing more, and Berliner's teaching study showed experts depend on students trained in their routines. → Berliner 1988

The article reports, citing Leinhardt and Greeno (1986), a comparison of an expert's and a novice's opening homework review in elementary mathematics: the expert was briefer, elicited mostly correct answers, corrected all homework, and never lost control, while the novice lost the pace and lacked habitual routines.
"The expert teacher was found to be quite brief, taking about one-third less time than the novice. This expert was able to pick up information about attendance and who did or did not do the homework."
