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? The 17 lesson plans reflected significantly fewer CS skills (conditionals, loops, functions, events) than CT concepts, with the highest CS mean being 1, meaning the concept could be used but was not required. → Lauren E. Margulieux · Brendan D. Calandra · Bryan Cox 2026

q2 · i? · design · r2
Rubric-based descriptive analysis of the same 17 lesson plans for CS skills (loops mean 1.1, events 0.9, conditionals 0.6, functions 0.5; medians 0). The article states "significantly fewer CS skills than CT concepts"; some teachers avoided explicit programming activities.
"The lessons reflected significantly fewer CS skills than CT concepts with the highest mean score among CS skills being 1, which represented that the concept could be used in the activity but was not required"
