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? In Grade 3, experimental classrooms showed significantly higher ratings for explaining lesson goals, modeling of strategies, feedback on strategy use, and end-of-lesson evaluation (e.g., modeling: t = −5.18, p < .001). → Droop 2016
q3 i? In Grade 4, similar differences were found for modeling of strategies, feedback, and evaluation, but not for explaining lesson goals. → Droop 2016 (2)

Droop 2016¶
Droop, M.; van Elsäcker, W.; Voeten, M. J. M.; Verhoeven, L. (2016). Long-Term Effects of Strategic Reading Instruction in the Intermediate Elementary Grades. Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness. https://doi.org/10.1080/19345747.2015.1065528
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Annual 45-minute activity-sampling observations of all experimental and control classrooms, rated on four-point scales; Grade 3 differences were statistically significant (e.g., modeling of strategies t = −5.18, df = 58, p < .001; Table 2).
"the experimental group showed a higher level of explaining the goals of the lesson, more modeling of strategies, a higher level of feedback on the use of strategies, and more re flection and evaluation at the end of the lesson."
Droop 2016 (2)¶
Droop, M.; van Elsäcker, W.; Voeten, M. J. M.; Verhoeven, L. (2016). Long-Term Effects of Strategic Reading Instruction in the Intermediate Elementary Grades. Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness. https://doi.org/10.1080/19345747.2015.1065528
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Grade 4 observations showed significant differences for modeling of strategies (t = −5.58, p < .001), feedback (t = −3.49, p < .001), and evaluation (t = −4.61, p < .001), but no differences for explaining lesson goals, classroom management, or clarity of instruction.
"In Grade 4, similar patterns were found. There were clear differences in the modeling of strategies, the feedback provided regarding the use of strategies and re flection, and evaluation at the end of the lesson."
