Subclaims¶

q2 i? In authentic classroom CSCL sessions, guiding support (alert-flagged critical moments) led teachers to make more announcements and more targeted individual and group interactions than mirroring support. → Ishari Amarasinghe; Davinia Hernández-Leo; H. Ulrich Hoppe 2021

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Epistemic network analysis of coded teacher actions across six teachers' classroom sessions, with three conditions per teacher in a within-subject design. The ENA difference network showed stronger edges linking announcements to dashboard tabs and interventions under guiding support. The abstract states guiding "enabled teachers to perform more orchestration actions" than mirroring.

"the results show that the guiding support enabled teachers to perform more orchestration actions, more targeted interactions and to make more announcements to the class (regarding time, phase transitions, and students’ activity participation) when compared to the mirroring support."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• The alerting & guiding dashboard did not increase teacher coregulation more than the mirroring dashboard (H3 not supported); mirroring increased intervention rates (non-significant) while guiding-condition interventions were rare and mostly coregulation strategies — reports the opposite
• Without dashboard support, teachers could not make announcements about time, phase transitions, or participation and relied on perception and surveying to diagnose collaboration — related
• SAGLET's real-time learning analytics provided alerts that enabled the teacher to monitor groups and give appropriate feedback — a broader claim this one bears on
• Guiding support stimulated targeted interactions: teachers posted more messages to groups (14 vs 4) and performed more dashboard interventions than under mirroring — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
• A mirroring dashboard shifts teacher attention toward epistemic over social aspects of learning, while a guiding dashboard divides interventions more equally — related
• Reported cognitive load was lowest in the mirroring condition (5.4), compared with no dashboard (5.6) and guiding (6.2) — related
• Mirroring dashboards improved teacher situational awareness while alerting-and-guiding dashboards reduced teacher workload and frustration — related
• Teacher-facing dashboards that mirror or guide increase teacher awareness and targeted interventions during classroom orchestration — a broader claim this one bears on
• The alerting & guiding dashboard reduced teachers' overall workload more than the mirroring dashboard in authentic settings (H2 supported) — related
• Mirroring-condition teachers relied more on indicator views while alerting and advising teachers opened more group overviews — related
