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? Students in rural charter schools outperform their TPS VCRs by 30 days of learning in reading and 59 days in math. → CREDO 2019
q2 i? Charter students in urban, suburban or town locations perform similarly to their respective TPS VCRs in both subjects. → CREDO 2019 (2)
