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.

q2 i? 85% of treatment students believed the blended approach facilitated their learning and 72% believed Getsmart improved their results. → Chandra 2012 q2 i? 90% of students had at least one positive comment about the online tests, which they saw as supporting reflection and feedback. → Chandra 2012 (2)

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Open-ended survey of the treatment group after the unit. The article reports "The majority of the students (85% ) believed for various reasons that such an approach facilitated their learning" and that 72% were positive the website improved their results.

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Same survey, question on online tests: "However, 90% of the students in this group had at least one positive comment about these tests ." Students perceived reflection and performance feedback as critical aspects of their learning.

"However, 90% of the students in this group had at least one positive comment about these tests ."
