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.
q2 i? Feedback presenting information about violated domain principles (Hint and All errors) was superior to other feedback levels and resulted in faster and more effective learning. → Mitrovic 2015
Evidence¶
Mitrovic 2015¶
Mitrovic, A., & Ohlsson, S. (2015). Implementing CBM: SQL-Tutor After Fifteen Years. International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40593-015-0049-9
q2 · i? · causal · r?
The article reports a study by Mitrovic and Martin (2000) investigating the effectiveness of various levels of feedback in SQL-Tutor. It states the results showed principle-level feedback "was superior to other feedback levels". No effect sizes are printed.
"the results showed that feedback presenting information about the violated domain principles (e.g., Hint and All errors) was superior to other feedback levels, and resulted in faster and more effective learning."
Discussion¶

- Theory-based feedback in EER-Tutor was more effective in supporting learning than the original designer-intuition feedback — related
- Adding positive feedback let students complete the same SQL-Tutor learning tasks in half the time with the same learning improvement — related
- The first (1998) evaluation of SQL-Tutor showed students learned from the system and found it useful and easy to use — related
