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? More than 50% of students used a Lab4CE virtual machine whereas only 25% (31 students) installed a virtual Linux machine on their own computer, suggesting a positive effect on engagement. → Julien Broisin 2017

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Exploratory usage analysis of 139 first-year undergraduates during four Linux practical sessions; use of Lab4CE was voluntary. The authors interpret the usage differential as "a positive effect of Lab4CE on learners' engagement"; no effect size is printed.

"more than 50 % of the students used a virtual machine made available through the Lab4CE environment, whereas only 25 % of them (i.e., 31 students) installed a virtual Linux-based machine on their own computer."
