Your claims above are about the study itself. Burr I'm glad it's clarified! I have no control about what other posts say.

Hi Elizabeth. I have no control over what people say about the paper. Both in the paper and in the blogs we were very clear that this is the effect of the intervention as a whole.

Having said that, we do have a lot of evidence from other studies of what effects that typically has.

That's what every student had during regular instruction. We did consider having an extra treatment with regular tutoring as an after-school program. We couldn't do it but I hope we can do it in future replications.

Have you read it? It was published yesterday. It does say that your description is correct. It also talks about how we interpret the results of the study as those of the whole intervention, not just the software.

Thanks Elizabeth. I believe your questions are answered here:

Hi! Sorry that I'm just seeing this. But hopefully the actual paper clarified things. Here is the chart for English, which was the main outcome of interest.

They used Microsoft Copilot and teachers provided guidance and initial prompts. No working paper yet, but the results and experiment are written up here: blogs.worldbank.org/en/education...
