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.
q3 i? Within-group pre-test to post-test comparisons showed significant improvement on content, organization, discourse markers, vocabulary, sentence construction, mechanics and total score for both the control and experimental groups. → Celik 2016
