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 named high workload, habits/routine, low-quality data and skills, and predisposition as main reasons for low adoption of data-informed analysis. → Saar 2022
q2 i? Although most teachers analyze their teaching mentally, none of the interviewed participants regularly collect data about their teaching. → Saar 2022

q2 · i? · design · r3
Open-ended interview question (Q10) in the think-aloud iteration with ten teachers, analyzed thematically. The article also states that "none of the participants regularly collect data about their teaching" despite admitting regular self-analysis should be routine.
"the main constraints were seen as high workload (n=4), habits/routine (n=3; "comfort, fear of anything new"), low-quality data and skills (n=2; "e-school analytics are not efficient," "I get stuck, need training"), and predisposition (n=3"
