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 i2 Experimental group had significantly higher maths-test gain scores than control group, t(43) = 4.57, p = 0.005, ES = 0.89. → Fabian 2018

Fabian, K., Topping, K. J., & Barron, I. G. (2018). Using mobile technologies for mathematics: effects on student attitudes and achievement. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-018-9580-3
q2 · i2 · causal · r1
Quasi-experimental study of 52 Primary 6/7 pupils in one Scottish school; the experimental group used tablets in weekly collaborative sessions over three months. The article reports a significant gain-score difference, t(43) = 4.57, p = 0.005, ES = 0.89, "which indicates that the experimental group had higher gains than the control group".
"A t test of the gain score between group showed a significant difference, t(43) = 4.57, p = 0.005, ES = 0.89 which indicates that the experimental group had higher gains than the control group."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Female students in the experimental group showed significantly higher maths gains than female controls, while males did not differ — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Within-group achievement gains were significant for the CCCT group but not for the control group — related
