Subclaims¶

q2 i? In the pilot study, the author reports that self-reported use increased for all 20 technology categories and that the average level of use rose across the three survey administrations; the article's own appendix table shows exceptions, such as digital video cameras falling from a mean of 4.13 at pretest to 3.60 at posttest. → Orr 2009

q2 · i? · design · r2

Pilot study of a blended graduate course: 26 students were surveyed three times via the LMS, and analysis was restricted to the 15 participants completing all three administrations. Descriptive analysis showed "self‐reported increase of use for all 20 technology categories"; the Appendix table reports the average level of use index rising from 3.01 to 3.97.

"Results (see Appendix ‐ Table 2) indicate self‐reported increase of use for all 20 technology categories, and an increased “average level of use” (average of category means)."

Related Claims¶

• Learning management system adoption rose from mostly non-use/orientation to routine-through-integration levels by December — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Presentation software adoption rose even though it was modeled by instructors rather than directly taught — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Reported videoconferencing adoption rose significantly after practitioners returned to the workplace (p<0.005), with mean level increasing from 2.00 to 4.53 — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Reported use of bridging/conferencing software showed a significant increase (p<0.001), with mean level rising from 1.00 to 2.60 — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Respondent feedback prompted a revised ten-level LoA scale splitting non-use and adding a replacement level, plus a more cyclic adoption model — related
