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? Teachers struggled to locate specific conceptual gaps and to distinguish confusion from avoidance because students often stopped progressing silently. → Conrad Borchers 2026

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3
Stuck points and cognitive roadblocks theme from the workshop. Teachers reported "difficulty locating specific conceptual gaps" and that silent stopping after difficulty made disengagement hard to detect during class.
"Teachers reported difficulty locating specific conceptual gaps and distin- guishing confusion from avoidance. Students often stopped progressing silently after difficulty, which made disengagement hard to detect during class."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Conditioning results from multiple disengagement detection methods on response times shows how the conditional approach aids threshold setting and misclassification avoidance — related
- Error analysis has stated limitations: overattention to errors, overstressing production data, failure to account for avoidance, and language-specific focus — related
