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? Easily accessible technical knowledge (Verfügungswissen) does not contribute to, and exacerbates the acquisition of, orientation knowledge (Orientierungswissen). → Markus Deimann and Robert Farrow 2013

Evidence

Markus Deimann and Robert Farrow 2013

Markus Deimann and Robert Farrow. (2013). Rethinking OER and their Use: Open Education as Bildung. International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, Vol 14 No 3. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1017477 doi:10.19173/irrodl.v14i3.1370

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

Theoretical argument distinguishing knowledge of how things are produced from knowledge of why. The article asserts the two forms are "inversely proportional" and that open access to Verfügungswissen exacerbates the acquisition of Orientierungswissen; no empirical evidence is offered.

"Both forms are inversely proportional: Whereas Verfügungswissen is easily accessible due to open formats and open archiving, it does not, however, contribute to an increase of Orientierungswissen. Furthermore, it exacerbates its acquisition."
