Subject: Re: Journal paper - pre/post survey analysis
Dear all,
We had a catch-up meeting today re the stats analysis of the paper (Jake and his colleague
Keegan are conducting this).
It seems that there are significant differences (both increases and decreases…) for some
of the 21st century skills, yet this varies greatly across classes/countries.
What we now plan to do is to control for variables that may explain these differences, and
I need some more info about the dataset you chose to include in the paper:
School context
1. Class (if you have classes from different schools) [state the below for each class]:
2. Private or public school [state]:
3. Deprivation level (as measured in your country) e.g. wealthy/poor neighbourhood
[state]:
Thanks,
Thea

Subject: Journal paper - pre/post survey analysis
Dear all,
Hope you are well, in the roadmap of publications doc
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1a8eOpdMNTXBlxsRbRx2JRbQKVLNU0Yj1PxRFO4x…
I expressed interest in writing a paper about:
“What is the impact of engaging with design thinking on students' critical thinking,
reflection, and empathy?”
I’m thinking of collating survey data from across partners and conduct a statistical
analysis of pre/post responses considering for contextual factors such as country, school
type, student performance, age, gender. This will address some of the criticism we
received from mis4TEL reviewers last year regarding the paper we published and which we
addressed by adding the below:
“In addition, we aim to address two limitations of this study: a) analyse data considering
for the sample’s heterogeneity e.g, different ages,
backgrounds, school type, locations, enabling comparisons between e.g., different types of
schools, and an understanding of the conditions under which the proposed intervention may
work (or not) well”
Would you be interested in contributing? Pls let me know and I can draft a plan with
activities and meetings to take this forward.
Best,
Thea
