“Kozma agreed with the lack of evidence, but responded with hopes that future media research would prove more positive, and contended that “ if we can find a relationship between media and learning then we will be able to see how technology influences learning ” (Kozma 1994, p. 8).”

“Despite the potential of using digital tools in mathematics and science classes, teachers should always assess additional benefits in regard to the context they want to use it in, and learning content should still take center stage (e.g., Clark, 1994; Kozma, 1994).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
