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? Average completion time on MuTAT was about 38 seconds, which the authors interpret as not excessive. → Adesina 2014
Evidence¶
Adesina 2014¶
Adesina, A., Stone, R., Batmaz, F., & Jones, I. (2014). Touch Arithmetic: A process‐based Computer‐Aided Assessment approach for capture of problem solving steps in the context of elementary mathematics. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2014.06.015
q2 · i? · design · r2
Univariate descriptive statistics of task times for the 39 participants on the MuTAT platform (Table 2: minimum 19, maximum 92, M 38.46). The authors state the mean "suggests that the participants did not spend excessive amount of time in using this approach".
"It can be seen that the average time spent on all the questions was 38 seconds."
