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? Adding the Language Storybook and Jonathan and the Sun discussion with facilitation tying big ideas to practical, real-world stories was more successful in shifting the PD community towards anti-deficit discussions including equity-as-transformation. → Ashlyn Pierson 2024
q2 i? Equity-as-transformation perspectives emerged more frequently in episodes following Summer 2 PD, suggesting the design and facilitation shifts supported ideological rearticulation. → Ashlyn Pierson 2024 (2)

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Case-study analysis of the second Summer PD 2 iteration with Cohorts 1 and 2, where the Jonathan and the Sun case from Warren et al. (2020) illustrated multiple pathways for science sensemaking and facilitators tied discussion to real-world stories.
"this facilitation, combined with the introduction of both the Language Storybook and the Jonathan and the Sun discussion, was more successful in shifting the PD community towards anti-deficit discussions of teaching and learning including perspectives of equity-as-transformation"

q2 · i? · design · r3
Retrospective interaction analysis across five focal episodes spanning Summer 2019 to Spring 2022, comparing Year 1 and Year 2 academic-year workshops for the frequency of transformative equity perspectives in teacher talk.
"We also highlight equity-as-transformation perspectives, which emerged more frequently in episodes following summer 2 PD, suggesting that our design and facilitation shifts supported ideological rearticulation."

- An initial PD design that did not distinguish equity conceptions reified deficit perspectives of multilingual learners — reports the opposite
- Post-course survey respondents reported the most growth on rethinking ideas about disability, with 27 of 33 noting definite growth and 17 describing a shift away from deficit thinking — related
