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? Semi-structured interviews with three students of differing prior performance showed alternative conceptions remediated for below-average and average students and strengthened scientific views for the above-average student. → Bayram Costu 2011
Evidence¶
Bayram Costu 2011¶
Bayram Costu, Alipasa Ayas, Mansoor Niaz. (2011). Investigating the effectiveness of a POE-based teaching activity on students' understanding of condensation. Instructional Science. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-011-9169-2
q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Semi-structured interviews of 25-30 min with three students selected from pre-test scores (S6, S19, S50), conducted just after the intervention and analyzed thematically. The article reports interviews "showed that students at three different levels ... improved their understanding about condensation".
"interview findings also showed that students at three different levels (below average, average, and above average) improved their understanding about condensation."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Interviews with three science teachers corroborated the quantitative results, reporting perceived improvements in analytical reasoning, conceptual integration, inquiry-based exploration, and creative scientific thinking — related
- Conceptual change about condensation after PDEODE teaching was retained at delayed post-test for most alternative conceptions, but not for SAC #4 and #6 — related
- A PDEODE teaching activity reduced first-year students' alternative conceptions about condensation from pre-test to post-test — related
- Responses classified as sound understanding on open-ended condensation items rose after the intervention and were still above pre-test levels at delayed post-test — related
