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? Within complex unities relevant to educators, a few conditions of complex emergence can be effectively manipulated: internal diversity, internal redundancy, decentralized agency and control, and neighbor interactions. → Jörg 2007
Evidence¶
Jörg 2007¶
Jörg, T., Davis, B. & Nickmans, G. (2007). Towards a new, complexity science of learning and education. Educational Research Review, 2(2), 145–156. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.edurev.2007.09.002
q1 · i? · theoretical · r2
Authors' interpretive claim in Section 6.1, drawing on complexity research (referring readers to Davis & Sumara, 2006) that some necessary conditions for complex emergence are manipulable in social settings, unlike conditions such as feedback loops or reproductive instability.
"However, within the sorts of complex unities that concern educators and policy-makers, a few conditions can be tinkered with effectively. These include internal diversity, internal redundancy, decentralized agency and control, and neighbor interactions."
