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.
q1 i? Based on assessments of past innovations, Annesley and Cuban suggest that hyperinteractivity enabled by advanced technology can intensify social inequality, paradoxically given its conflation with democracy. → Dennis 2020

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2
The review reports, citing Annesley (2001) and Cuban (2001), that "the hyperinteractivity that advanced technology allows can also intensify social inequality" — a caution the article attributes to those prior assessments of educational technology, not to data gathered in this article.
"Based on their assessments of past innovations, Annesley (2001) and Cuban (2001) suggested that the hyperinteractivity that advanced technology allows can also intensify social inequality."
