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? Statistically significant retention-test differences favoring the computer-assisted instruction group were found on the multiplication and division units but not on the fractions unit. → Pilli 2013
Evidence¶
Pilli 2013¶
Pilli, Olga; Aksu, Meral. (2013). The effects of computer-assisted instruction on the achievement, attitudes and retention of fourth grade mathematics students in North Cyprus. Computers & Education. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2012.10.010
q3 · i? · causal · r1
Retention was measured four months after the intervention in the same quasi-experimental comparison of 29 experimental and 26 control students. "statistically significant differences in favor of the treatment group, on the retention tests were attained on the multiplication and division units but not on fractions."
"statistically significant differences in favor of the treatment group, on the retention tests were attained on the multiplication and division units but not on fractions."
