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? In creative fields such as architecture and design, GAI tools enriched student ideation, fostered aesthetic development, and built confidence, particularly among learners with lower prior competencies, narrowing skill gaps. → Filippo Sciarrone 2025
