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.
q1 i? The ontology and specificity of a representational scheme determine what can be expressed and how much room for interpretation is left. → Bruggen 2002
Evidence¶
Bruggen 2002¶
Bruggen, J.M.; Kirschner, P.A.; Jochems, W. (2002). External representation of argumentation in CSCL and the management of cognitive load. https://dspace.library.uu.nl/handle/1874/16871
q1 · i? · theoretical · r2
A conceptual claim from the article's theoretical reflection on external representations in CSCL; the authors argue that scheme "ontology and specificity" are "crucial factors" shaping expressiveness and interpretive room. No empirical data are reported.
"The ontology and specificity of the representational scheme used are crucial factors, as they define what can be expressed and how much room for interpretation is left in the representation."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Cognitive load theory may help identify mismatches between representational schemes and the execution of (sub)tasks in CSCL — related
- Analyzing arts-based data was one of the biggest challenges in community-based arts-based research: what counts as data was unclear, conventional textual analyses dominated, and researcher-led versus participant-led interpretation each risked stereotyping — related
