In Grade 9, fewer problems during distance learning were associated with better verbal achievement, summer school attendance was associated with lower reading and listening achievement, and learning-condition relations did not differ between student groups¶

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? Grade 9 students with less pronounced problems during distance learning showed better test results in all domains, and summer school attendance in 2021 was associated with lower achievements in reading and listening. → Rebecca Schneider 2025

q3 · i? · associational · r3
Multilevel regressions of 2022 Grade 9 verbal achievement on pandemic learning conditions with background covariates (N = 31.427 as printed). The article reports "summer school attendance in 2021 was associated with lower achievements in reading and listening."
"Students with less pronounced problems during distance learning showed better test results in all domains. Moreover, summer school attendance in 2021 was associated with lower achievements in reading and listening."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Grade 4 pandemic learning conditions were significantly related to verbal achievement, with the teacher-rated functioning of distance learning relating more positively to achievement for non-SEN than SEN-L-S students — related
- During the pandemic, Grade 4 students with SEN-L experienced less favorable home learning environments and lower parental support than non-SEN students, while Grade 9 group differences were largely non-significant — related
- In Grade 9, negative achievement trends emerged for non-SEN and SEN-L-R students in all domains, and SEN-L-R trends were always significantly more pronounced than for non-SEN peers — related
- Grade 4 cohorts affected by COVID-19 restrictions showed significant negative trends in verbal achievement for non-SEN and SEN-L-R students in all three domains, and for SEN-L-S students only in orthography — related
