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? Students accustomed to in-class questioning and discussion in their home countries continued those practices, while students from less interactive backgrounds had difficulty appropriating them, though they slowly moved toward more whole-class interaction. → Nelson 2001

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Participant-observer analysis of a first-year composition course for international students, drawing on interviews, observations, and Online Learning Records. Students from Mexico, Brazil, and India reported frequent class discussion at home, while an Indonesian student said people in Asia "kind of embarrassed ... or shy or something when asking a question in front of the all people".
"Those students accustomed to in-class questioning and discussions continued their previous practices, and those from less interactive backgrounds continued their practices, although they did slowly move toward more whole-class interaction due to the class setting's influence."
